is this really essential for detecting cavitations some dentists that do cavitations dont use this

clare,
If a dentist can see the cavitat from the panorex x-ray then they can do surgury on it. Unfortunatly many cavitats are not picked up by the "normal' dentist by looking at your panorex. The cavitat uses a special machine much like an Ultrasound.
You can read about it on Dr. Shanklands site. He explains it much better than I can.
Hope this helps.

Hi Clare, i rang up a dentist who uses this machine and he said its the only one in the country, hes in Bournmouth or somewhere near. It costs £300.
Have you got teeth missing? if not you probably dont have cavitations. I had alot done this year, a site where 3 teeth were pulled out and a site where one was pulled, the dentist saw on the panoramic xray that i needed to get them done.
Apart from cleaning out the gum he used ozone aswell. I have had no pain since so it has helped.

i have 4 teeth missing im pretty sure this is my problem do you know the dentists name or website that charges £300 was the dentist you saw for your cavitations any good?
