PerioView is a dental endoscope which enables you to gain a clear view of the root surface without the need for tissue incisions, providing a less invasive approach. This leads to reduced postoperative discomfort and swifter recovery. Patients are more receptive to treatment as their concerns and apprehensions are effectively addressed.
A PerioView endoscope is a specialized dental instrument that allows for non-invasive visualization and inspection of the periodontal (gum) tissues and structures beneath the gum line. It consists of a small camera attached to a flexible tube, enabling dentists to examine areas that are not easily accessible during a routine dental examination.
Using a PerioView endoscope provides numerous benefits, including enhanced visibility of periodontal pockets, early detection of gum disease or abnormalities, more accurate diagnosis, and targeted treatment planning. It also allows dentists to monitor treatment progress and ensure thorough cleaning during procedures such as scaling and root planing.
No, the use of a PerioView endoscope is minimally invasive and generally painless for patients. The small size and flexibility of the instrument allow for gentle insertion beneath the gum line, providing valuable visual information to the dentist without causing discomfort.
PerioView endoscope is particularly beneficial for diagnosing and treating gum diseases such as periodontitis and gingivitis. It aids in identifying hidden plaque and tartar buildup, assessing gum tissue health, and ensuring thorough cleaning during periodontal treatments.
