Intraoral Camera

What is an Intraoral Camera?

An intraoral camera is a small, handheld device used by dentists to capture high-quality images of the inside of your mouth. It consists of a small camera attached to a wand-like device that can be maneuvered to capture detailed images of your teeth, gums, and other oral structures.

Benefits of Intraoral Camera

• Early Detection: Intraoral cameras enable dentists to detect dental issues such as cavities, gum disease, and cracks in teeth at an early stage, facilitating prompt treatment and preventing further damage.

• Improved Treatment Planning: By capturing detailed images, intraoral cameras assist dentists in creating personalized treatment plans tailored to the specific needs of each patient.

• Documentation: Intraoral camera images serve as valuable documentation of your dental health, allowing dentists to track changes in your oral condition over time and monitor the effectiveness of treatments.
