Description

The C50 is an intraoral video camera equipped with LEDs to illuminate the inspection site. The C50 optics and its complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensor capture the natural fluorescence of the site under observation and convert the images into a video signal that is sent to the computer via a USB interface. The dental practitioner can use the images displayed on the computer screen as an aid in diagnosis. A USB Type-C (camera) to USB-A cable is provided to connect the C50 to a computer. The C50 provides the following functions: Aid in the detection of pit and fissure caries Information about patient dental hygiene Highlighting of dental plaque Highlighting of gingival inflammations (restricted to gingival inflammations which lead to bleeding upon probing) Showing the difference between “before” and “after” care (follow-up). In CARIO mode (blue mode), the camera assists the dental practitioner by highlighting potential carious areas in pits and fissures on the occlusal surface of the teeth. In DAYLIGHT mode (white mode), the camera enables visualization of anatomical details invisible to the naked eye or with a mirror (thanks to its magnification). DAYLIGHT+ mode (white mode) is a shortcut version of DAYLIGHT mode where the contrast has been pushed from 20 to 70. In PERIO mode (yellow mode), the camera helps the dental practitioner to visualize dental plaque, in addition to highlighting areas of gingival inflammation (restricted to gingival inflammation that leads to bleeding upon probing).
