Everybody knows that cracks occur less frequently
in non-restored teeth, and much more frequently in
teeth that have undergone a dental procedure.
In non-restored teeth, there are no internal
micromovements, while there are in damaged teeth,
being caused by failed restorations or by various
coronal cracks (oblique, vertical or horizontal)
and root cracks, impossible to diagnose visually or
noninvasively.
Perimetrics, Inc. based on machine learning, deep
learning and nite element analysis realizes an
electromagnetically actuated system of non-invasive
quantitative percussion diagnosis (QPD) to identify
mobility in teeth and/or implants.
The InnerView LC system is indicated to accurately
measure the damping characteristics of the
periodontium and its associated xed structures
(teeth and/or implants).
The system offers the results in real time with an
easy-to-read report on the screen, namely:
• Describes the state of tooth or implant restoration,
• Provides the percentage calculation of the
diagnosis and the calculation basis of the probable
cause of the damage,
• Immediate recommended action is indicated,
• Empowers the clinician to provide an adequate
treatment plan,
• Eliminates the learning curve, as the results are
calculated in real time, with a diagnostic report that
is easy to read by the patient.

The InnerView LC system is made up of:
• Wireless handpiece provided with a single-use
tip with Smart Chip technology,
• Low-prole base station, designed to sit on the
operator’s table,
• Software,
• A USB cable providing a connection from the base
station to a computer.
The working methodology tests the cushioning
capacity and, consequently, the mobility of the
teeth and dental implants by lightly percussing their
buccal surface. The percussion data generated by
the handpiece is wirelessly transferred to the base
station and forwarded to the computer via the USB
connection.
This system provides a number of benefits for
both patient and clinician:
Patient benets:
• Condence in the diagnosis
• Early detection
• Non-invasive, painless and without radiation
• Fast, 2 seconds per tooth
• Inexpensive
• Patient Portal Application
Clinician benets:
• Empowerment with a suitable treatment plan
• The practice of “wellness”
• Signicant new income
• Increased credibility
• Digital diagnosis (Dental insurance code -
D0600)
Against this backdrop, the InnerView LC system
can be recommended due to its diagnostic
capabilities
and easy use by the dental professional for each
individual patient, becoming a new standard of care.
