DIAGNOdent Pen Versus Tactile Sense for Detection of Subgingival Calculus: An in Vitro Study [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, 2015 AbstractThe objective of this study is to compare the performance of the DIAGNOdent laser fluorescence (LF) Pen to conventional periodontal probing for detection of subgingival calculus under defined laboratory conditions. Extracted teeth with various levels of subgingival deposits of calculus were mounted anatomically in stone casts, and an impression
