Dentequip is a manufacturer of specialised equipment used for dental examinations and surgeries. Their products include dental chairs, dental units, plant room equipment, velscopes, oral cancer screening systems and surgitel loupes. Velscopes are oral cancer screening systems used in healthcare environments. Velscopes and allied products offered by the company include velscope units, velscope camera kits, fluorescent velscopes and SLR camera kits. These velscopes are especially used in early detection of oral cancers as they can detect the biochemical changes in the oral tissue even before they are visible to the eyes of the examiner.
These velscopes have been developed based on the fluorescence technology, which involves the use of deep penetrating X-rays that help in examining affected tissue even in the layers below the stroma. These cancer detector devices help in the identification and testing of unhealthy tissues in the surface as well as deep layers. Laborious cancer detection procedures involving staining and rinsing of tissues as well as cells several times can be avoided using these velscopes, which are precise instruments. SLR single lens reflex camera kits provided with these fluorescent velscopes help in easy photo documentation and oral cancer detection. These velscopes can help dentists provide efficient and timely treatment to patients especially those suffering from imperceptible cancers.
