3D owns the protected rights to a technology platform with a number of significant potential commercial applications. CarieScan Ltd, a 3D company, produce a Caries Management Support System which includes the CarieScan PRO™ data detection device, and RemoteView software, providing the display, capture, storage and recall of caries data to enable dentists and hygienists to undertake automated monitoring of caries for the first time.

The CarieScan PRO™ measures the presence of tooth decay earlier and more accurately than any other device on the market and is more than 90% accurate in detecting both sound and carious teeth, well ahead of other methods. It detects “hidden” decay, providing dental practitioners with the opportunity to arrest or even reverse decay, driving the trend towards preventative dental care.

The lightweight CarieScan PRO™ detection monitor not only offers best-in-class performance for decay detection but also allows easy monitoring of the effect of treatment regimes to show decay advancement or regression, thus enabling dentists to tailor treatment to the needs of the patient at a low cost. The CarieScan PRO™ consists of a hand piece and a disposable sensor which is held against the tooth being examined in a process which takes approximately 4 seconds per tooth with the result displayed on the CarieScan PRO™.

The RemoteView software application changes the paradigm for Caries Monitoring. Working wirelessly with the CarieScan PRO, all data (Tooth Number, Site Information and measurement results) are captured and displayed in a number of available formats. Once captured, data is available for review and forms part of a monitoring record. Disease progression and regression can easily be monitored. All CarieScan PRO units are shipped with a Bluetooth dongle enabling any XP/Vista/Windows 7 PC to communicate with the PRO. The CarieScan Caries Monitoring System is the first dedicated wireless monitoring system.
