There should never be any guesswork involved in dental health. With our intra-oral camera technology, your dental visit becomes educational and transparent.
Inta-oral cameras are small, pen-sized imaging tools with high-resolution lenses and LED lighting. We can use this tool to take crystal-clear images and videos of your mouth, including hard-to-see areas that mirrors alone cannot provide. An image is displayed instantly on a monitor, allowing you to see it first-hand.
When patients undergo traditional dental exams, they often wonder if there are serious problems or if certain treatments are required. Intra-oral cameras change this dynamic completely. Seeing cracked fillings, early cavities, or inflamed gum tissue on the screen makes the treatment recommendations easier to understand.
Visual approaches build trust and confidence. Rather than just hearing about a problem, you see it for yourself. Having transparency in your dental care allows you to make informed decisions and understand the importance of your treatment recommendations.
Intra-oral cameras reveal details that cannot be seen by visual examination:
Examinations are completely noninvasive and painless. This procedure takes only a few minutes, and the camera moves gently around your mouth. The procedure won't cause any pain or discomfort, won't involve radiation, and the results won't take long. During your visit, you can watch every step of the process live.
Your permanent dental record includes every image captured. Visual documentation has a variety of uses. Comparison of images between visits can be used for tracking changes, monitoring healing after treatment, and monitoring existing conditions. When you compare your before-and-after photographs, you can see how much better your oral health has become.
The detailed images serve more than just patient education. Images prove the necessity of treatments for insurance claims. In case you need a specialist, we'll be able to provide them with clear images so they can see your condition right away. It allows everyone involved in your care to access the same detailed information.
Aside from providing exceptional surface views of your teeth and soft tissues, intra-oral cameras are used in conjunction with other diagnostic tools like X-rays to give us a complete picture of your oral health. With an X-ray, you can see what's happening in roots and bones, while with a camera, you can see what's going on in visible structures. With these technologies, we won't miss anything.
