An Intraoral Camera is composed of a slim wand that is used to take pictures of problematic areas of the mouth. These difficult areas include rear molars and gums and can help detect even minor cracks or other issues. By detecting unseen problems early on, we can help save you from potentially painful and costly procedures in the future.
The wand is the size of a toothbrush. It consists of a tiny, high-quality camera that also lights up the problematic area of the mouth. Live footage from the camera can be watched on a computer screen, allowing our team to take diagnostic images that can also be viewed later.
Dental Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CT) is an advanced X-ray technology that produces detailed images of the bone around the teeth, enabling dentists to evaluate the mouth more comprehensively. It helps generate three-dimensional (3D) images of soft tissues, oral structures, nerve paths, and bone in the craniofacial region in a single scan. Pictures captured with cone beam CT allow for more accurate treatment planning.
Digital X-rays make use of advanced sensors rather than film, thus reducing your exposure to radiation by roughly ninety percent compared to traditional X-rays. They also provide much more precise and in-depth imagery. As soon as the digital images are captured, they appear on a computer screen and enable the doctors to detect everything from decay between teeth to tumors, abscesses, poor root positioning, and more. Another advantage of digital X-rays is that they can be stored easily, and the chances of losing or misplacing them are significantly less.
