Intraoral cameras are small, handheld digital devices that are used to take close-up pictures of the inside of the mouth. These images provide valuable information for Specialists and can help them with diagnosis and treatment planning. The cameras use a light probe, flash system, and lens to capture high-quality pictures and videos of the teeth and gums. This type of imaging allows dentists to see decay or damage in hard to reach places and can even be used to help demonstrate potential treatments to the patient. Additionally, Specialists use these cameras as teaching tools so they can review dental health issues with their patients more effectively.
