An intraoral camera is a small, hand-held camera that takes high-resolution pictures of your teeth and mouth. We use it to get a close-up view of your teeth so we can detect problems early and provide you with the best treatment possible. By using an intraoral camera, we can better evaluate your oral health and detect dental problems such as:
- A cracked or chipped tooth
- Inflamed gums
- Damaged dental fillings
- Tooth decay
The use of an intraoral camera has many benefits. First, it allows our dentists and team to get a clear view of all areas of the mouth, including those that are hard to see with the naked eye. This helps us to identify problems early on and to determine the best course of treatment. Second, the pictures taken with an intraoral camera can be saved and stored for future reference. This is especially helpful if a problem arises later on down the road. Third, intraoral cameras can be used to educate you about your oral health. By showing you pictures of your mouth, we can help you understand the importance of good oral hygiene and proper dental care.
Our team can also send these images to other dentists and specialists who we may need to refer you to if we do not offer a specific treatment at our office. We can also send them to your dental insurance company if needed. If you have any questions about intraoral cameras, please contact our dental team.
