Teeth care on the go: Mobile dentists, hygienists travel to your door, Sacramento Bee, January 3, 2015http://www.sacbee.com/news/business/personal-finance/claudia-buck/article5281839.htmlMobile dentistry just wouldnt be possible without the technology we have today, said Dr. Masood Cajee, based in Manteca. We can take X-rays with a handheld X-ray gun that didnt exist 20 years ago.Cajee, whose mobile visits represent about 5 to 10 percent of his overall practice, said, It takes dentistry beyond the four walls of the practice and serves populations that were really difficult to serve before.Weve all had parents, grandparents or even young people who are unable to help themselves, said Cajee. Sometimes its the small things youre doing that can provide some comfort. It fulfills the best of this calling we call dentistry.
