Dr. Jeff Bartley’s Anchor Point dental office offers residents of Homer and the Kenai Peninsula the very latest in advanced dental treatments. The most recent addition to Dr. Bartley’s arsenal of sophisticated dental tools is Diagnodent, a simple, painless method for detecting cavities at the earliest stage.

Early signs of tooth decay:

  • Pain when chewing
  • Bite changes
  • Bad breath regularly
  • Routine bad taste in your mouth
  • Pain with temperature changes
  • Red, puffy or bleeding gums

Though 75% of Americans experience their first cavity by the age of five, a majority of people over 50 have some kind of tooth decay.

Early detection of cavities is important, because means your teeth, gums and smile can remain beautiful and functional, and you’re sure to spend less time in the dentist’s chair.

What Causes Cavities?

  • Eating starchy and sugary foods
  • Lack of fluoridated water
  • Numerous dental restorations
  • Poor oral hygiene—not brushing and flossing regularly

Treating Cavities Early Is the Key

Finding and treating cavities early is now so much easier with the Diagnodent laser cavity detection system, the most advance dental equipment for cavity detection and a breakthrough in early decay detection and treatment. Using a pen-sized probe, Diagnodent sends a safe, painless laser beam into the tooth, seeking the presence of hidden decay and finding it faster than traditional diagnostics. Finding it faster means treating it faster, and that means a healthier, more beautiful smile for you! It also means reduced dental procedures and expense, since catching the cavity when it’s small makes it easier to fix.

When you consider that 80% of all cavities occur in on biting surfaces, it’s easy to see how Diagnodent can help you save money, time and dental visits.

Why take a chance that traditional dentistry will catch these tiny cavities before they become big problems? Dr. Bartley’s Diagnodent laser cavity detection system, in combination with other advanced technologies, can have you in and out of the dentist’s chair faster than you can imagine.
