The computer-integrated Florida Probe® is the only "complete" system for periodontal probing and charting. It provides an interactive exam that dramatically increases acceptance of periodontal treatments. Constant pressure, automated, "talking" Probe records all parameters of a periodontal exam, including pocket depth, to the nearest 0.2mm. Software, hardware and training included.

Eric Compton, national sales and training manager for Florida Probe, provides a brief demonstration/overview of the Florida Probe comprehensive exam and stresses that the Florida Probe is a "system", rather than just a computerized periodontal probe.

RDH is performing a periodontal exam using the automated, computerized probe (FP Handpiece). Listen as the computer calls out the probing depths and other information. Designed to be more accurate and comfortable than probing with a standard periodontal probe.

A Florida Probe rep at the FNDC show in Orlando, Florida explains that warning levels can be set to different values within the Florida Probe software and one of the purposes of setting the warning levels is to create a treatment "map" that can be easily referenced by the clinician.
