The key to quality dental work is good diagnosis. In the past, dentists have relied on x-ray technology and visual assessment of decay, fissures and pits to determine the right corrective procedures. Today, with the use of our intra-oral dental camera Dr. Gearin has the ability to obtain a much closer look at your teeth.
What Is An Intra-Oral Camera?
As the name implies, this dental tool is a intra-oral or inside the mouth camera. Our Intra-Oral camera is about the size of a dentists tool. It is extremely precise and can take a picture of your tooth with much greater detail than the human eye could ever dream of zooming in on. The intra-oral dental camera is connected to a monitor for viewing. Intra-oral cameras can look with great detail at cavities, crowns, onlays, inlays and cavity fillings.
Intra-Oral Camera Monitor
When Dr. Gearin takes a picture of your teeth with her intra-oral camera, the image is transferred to a monitor. With the image on the screen, Dr. Gearin can zoom in on areas of concern to identify early signs of problems, showing you trouble areas and explaining how these areas can be treated.
Benefits of Intra-Oral Cameras
One of the primary benefits of intra-oral cameras is the ability to capture, save and zoom in on an image of your tooth. Another benefit is that Dr. Gearin can now show you what she is observing which allows you to be more informed about your own dental health.
