Product description
Application areas of the CamX Spectra:
– Detecting plaque and tartar
– Detecting the early stages of caries
- Fissure caries that are difficult to detect
- Location of carious lesions on smooth
surfaces
- Optically-supported check during excava-
tion
Analysis
The images are analyzed by the imaging soft-
ware DBSWIN with the help of a filter�
The
prophylaxis view
shows the original image�
Figure 3: Prophylaxis view
The
caries view
analyses the intrinsic biofluo-
rescence of the substances with the caries filter�
Figure 4: Caries view
The camera lens focusing range is fixed�
The power supply for the camera to the com-
puter is realized via the USB connection cable�
The camera switches off automatically if it is not
moved for two minutes� As soon as the camera
is moved, it switches on again�
5.1 CamX Elara
The camera has a fixed-focus optical lens with a
depth of field appropriate for intraoral imaging�
Eight LEDs are arranged around the optical lens
which provide even illumination�

5.2 CamX Spectra
The camera is used to create intraoral images
for detecting caries, plaque and tartar� It has a
fixed-focus optical lens for intraoral imaging�
Positioned around the optical element are four
LEDs with blue-violet light (wavelength 405 nm)�
The energy rich blue-violet light causes the
tooth structure (tooth enamel, dentine) and the
metabolites of cariogenic bacteria (porphyrins)
to fluoresce� The substances emit different col-
ors (intrinsic biofluorescence)� This makes it
possible to analyze caries activity and detect
potential tooth disease�
