Innovative, Safe, and Accurate Decay Detection

What Is Dexis CariVu™?

Dexis CariVu™ is an innovative, compact decay detection device that uses a patented transillumination technology to identify dental issues. This technology works by shining a safe light through the teeth to produce an image similar to that of an X-ray, but without the harmful exposure. CariVu™ is especially beneficial for patients with small mouths or strong gag reflexes, as it is more comfortable and less invasive than traditional X-rays. It enables our team to detect cracks, cavities, and tooth decay with precision while viewing the scan on a high-definition monitor in real-time.

This method is not only safe for all patients, but it also reduces the need for traditional X-rays, lowering exposure to radiation by about 50% over time. With Dexis CariVu™, we can provide more accurate diagnoses, allowing for early intervention and better outcomes for your dental health.
