Clinical Snapshot and Overview
Dr. Howard Golan, DDS, runs a family dental practice in Nassau County, NY, with a focus on integrating advanced diagnostic technologies. His practice emphasizes long-term patient care and early detection of implant and tooth complications.
The information in this case study pertains to future capabilities, currently under clinical evaluation – Not yet FDA cleared.
A 75-year-old male presented for a routine hygiene visit. Though asymptomatic, a loose crown on #13 raised concerns. Radiographs and visual exam confirmed mobility but did not explain the underlying issue threatening implant stability.
With InnerView, Dr. Howard Golan detected an early-stage implant complication that was otherwise undetectable. This case demonstrates how InnerView’s quantitative percussion diagnostic technology can reveal implant instability before catastrophic failure occurs.
During the evaluation, InnerView measurements confirmed the expected mobility of #13 but also uncovered an unexpected finding—implant instability at #14i.
Overall mobility scores were in the normal ranges.
The NFE score for #14i was very high.
Dr. Golan removed the screw channel composite and re-torqued the abutment screw on #14i to 32NCM. Following this minor adjustment, a second InnerView measurement revealed:
InnerView identified hidden implant instability not visible clinically or radiographically
NFE data guided a simple, minimally invasive correction
Objective metrics validated restored implant stability
Routine InnerView monitoring supports proactive implant maintenance
Dentistry has never had a way to measure what happens inside the tooth – until now.
Innerview makes the invisible visible, giving you earlier insight into cracks and failing restorations before damage progresses.
