The Identafi 3000 by Trimira. |
Identafi 3000 uses white, violet, and amber wavelengths of light to excite oral tissue in distinct and unique ways, according to the company. Biochemical changes can be monitored with fluorescence, while morphological changes can be monitored with reflectance.
The company claims this multiple wavelength technology identifies abnormal tissue with more accuracy than the single-color approaches currently on the market, and that the ability to read metabolic and physiologic differences makes it easier to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissue. In addition, the combination of fluorescence and reflectance uses the body's natural tissue properties as an adjunctive tool for oral mucosal examination.
Trimira will display Identafi 3000 in its booth (#865) at the Chicago Dental Society Midwinter Meeting.
