What is the difference between dental digital probe and manual probe?

In previous years there were only manual periodontal probes on the market. Now it is increasingly common to find digital periodontal probes that make our work easier.

Differences between manual and digital periodontal probes

Sometimes manual periodontal probes lead us to make mistakes because we are unable to see exactly what's happening in the patient's mouth. These are some of the advances and advantages that digital periodontal probes give us as opposed to manual ones:

Technology focused and applied only to the diagnosis and follow-up of periodontal treatment

Audiovisual reproduction of the exam results, which allows us to see a wider and more complete view of the patient's mouth. Additionally, this allows us to better explain to the patient what their issues are by allowing them to visualize it

The results are transmitted automatically to the patient without the need for intermediate procedures, thus saving time

Provides us with a clinical history of the patient which allows us to easily see both graphical and numerical changes over time

The results are always accurate, reproducible and are not dependent on factors such as change of doctor or pressure applied

We can measure indicators such as pocket depth, bleeding, plaque location, missing and impacted teeth, implants and crowns, hyperplasia, gingival adhesion, etc.
