Canary Caries Detection Update

There have numerous updates to The Canary System since we last communicated including new published research. Each study focuses on critical aspects for the management of caries in clinical practice:

 

1. The Canary System can detect caries under the intact margins of resin modified glass ionomer and compomer restorations more accurately than SPECTRA, DIAGNODent and visual examination.

2. The Canary System measures caries lesion depth more accurately than visual examination or DIAGNOdent.

3. The Canary System can detect caries under the intact margins of amalgam restorations more accurately than Spectra, DIAGNOdent and visual examination.

Canary software can be installed on operatory workstations. 

The Canary System is the perfect tool to:

Reduce the frequency of radiographs

Detect decay in pits and fissures and around restorations 4x earlier than radiographs

Monitor remineralization
