Intraoral cameras are essential diagnosis and patient education tools. This technology can be more powerful than traditional X-rays, as it allows us to capture the nuances of the mouth, gums, and teeth to an unparalleled degree. It is designed to be placed inside the mouth and capture high-quality images of the teeth, gums, and other soft tissues. This allows our Woodbridge dental team to design far more highly targeted and specific treatment plans for patients. They are also essential in designing more powerful patient record files, as they can be easily pulled for consultations with other providers should you move out of town.
An intra-oral camera is a small camera that is used in dentistry to capture images of the inside of a patient's mouth. It has a built-in light source and serves as a tiny video camera that allows us to zoom in on one tooth with 25 times magnification, or give you a video tour of your entire mouth. The images are displayed on a television or computer monitor, our Woodbridge dentist will be able to see problems such as worn or broken fillings, cracked teeth, plaque deposits, cavities next to fillings, and excessive wear. Our dentist at Papini Dentistry can also print an image for you to take home with you.
Intra-oral cameras have several benefits, including helping patients understand their dental conditions better, as they can see the images themselves. Additionally, the images captured by the camera can be easily shared with other dental professionals if a referral is necessary. The use of an intra-oral camera also allows for more accurate and efficient diagnoses, as it can capture images that may be difficult or impossible to see with the naked eye.
