Intraoral Camera

Patient education and understanding the condition of your mouth are very important to us. We want you to understand the "why" for the work we recommend for you in meeting your goals. As we know, a picture is worth a thousand words! Our team uses a small camera right inside your mouth to take highly magnified digital photos of your teeth. These photos are displayed on a computer screen for both you and the doctor, and are invaluable in diagnosing and recording dental problems. Intra-oral photos also allow you to view what our team sees.

In addition to patient education the intra-oral pictures may aid in insurance payment acceptance. By digitally documenting large fillings, stress fractures, gum recession and other needs for temporary and permanent restorations in your chart, the photos can be easily printed and sent to insurance companies along with digital x-rays.
