What is it indicated for?

The InnerView System is intended to precisely measure the damping characteristics of the periodontium and its associated fixed structures (teeth and/or implants). It can provide data to quantify tooth and/or dental implant mobility by producing two distinct outputs. InnerView's Mobility quantifies the external tooth and/or implant mobility. InnerView's NFE quantifies the internal mobility within the tooth and/or implant structure.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
