At Orland Oaks Dental, we strive to provide the best possible care by utilizing modern technology. The intraoral camera is a revolutionary tool that enhances diagnosis, treatment planning and patient education. Our dentists and team use this advanced device to give you a clearer understanding of your dental health. We are dedicated to making your dental visits informative, comfortable and efficient.

What is an Intraoral Camera?

An intraoral camera is a small, handheld device with a high-definition camera that captures detailed images of your teeth and gums. These images are displayed on a screen, allowing you to see exactly what we see during your examination. This transparency not only improves diagnosis but also helps you make informed decisions about your dental care.

Benefits of the Intraoral Camera

The intraoral camera provides numerous benefits for patients and dental professionals alike:

  • Enhanced Diagnosis: Offers a detailed view of cavities, fractures, gum disease and other issues.
  • Better Communication: Allows us to show and explain findings, helping you understand your oral health.
  • Early Detection: Identifies problems in their earliest stages, ensuring timely and less invasive treatment.
  • Comfortable Experience: The compact camera is non-invasive and designed for patient comfort.
  • Improved Record-Keeping: High-resolution images are stored in your digital file for accurate tracking of your dental health over time.

How the Intraoral Camera Works

During your appointment, we will gently guide the intraoral camera around your mouth to capture detailed images of your teeth and gums. These images are instantly displayed on a monitor, allowing you to visualize your oral health in real-time. This process improves understanding, facilitates discussions about treatment options and ensures a more personalized approach to your care.
