Intraoral Camera

What is an Intraoral Camera?

An intraoral camera is essentially a small, wand-like digital camera the dentist uses to view some of the hard-to-reach areas of the mouth. This useful tool also has a rotating head for maneuverability and strong zooming capabilities. Since the deeper parts of the mouth are dark and hard to see, the camera also has a powerful LED light.  

Since the resolution is so large, the camera can spot even some of the smallest details – some that even the naked eye can’t see.

Uses for an Intraoral Camera

One of the best things about intraoral cameras is that it gives our dentists the ability to show you exactly what they see, allowing you to get a first-hand view of any potential oral health problems. For patient education purposes, it’s a great tool to show you exactly what’s wrong and why you would need a certain treatment or procedure.

The camera’s high-definition images also assist with early detection, meaning it will be able to capture minuscule signs of cavities, gum disease, and infection.

• Patient education
