What is an Intraoral Camera?
An intraoral camera is a small, wand-like device with a tiny camera at its tip that allows your dentist to take clear, close-up pictures of the inside of your mouth. These images are displayed on a screen in real time, so you can actually see what your dentist sees.
- Detecting dental problems early (like cavities, cracks, or gum disease)
- Making treatment explanations easier to understand
- Keeping accurate visual records of your oral health
How an Intraoral Camera Works?
- The intraoral camera is a small, pen-sized device with a high-resolution camera and LED light at the tip.
- During your exam, your dentist gently moves the device inside your mouth to capture detailed images of your teeth, gums, and other areas.
- These images appear instantly on a chairside monitor, so you can view them in real time.
- The dentist can zoom in on specific areas, highlight concerns, and explain any findings clearly.
- The pictures are saved to your dental records, allowing for easy comparison at future visits.
This simple, non-invasive process makes dental checkups more transparent, accurate, and engaging for patients.
