Intraoral cameras are a pivotal tool in modern dentistry, providing enhanced visualization of a patient’s oral health condition. Dr. Leah McQuigg and Associates utilize this advanced technology to improve the accuracy of diagnoses and to actively involve patients in their treatment plans. Our team is committed to using state-of-the-art equipment to deliver high-quality care in a professional and friendly environment.
An intraoral camera is a small, hand-held device that captures high-resolution images of the inside of a patient’s mouth. This allows both the dentist and the patient to see tooth defects, gum disease or the early signs of oral health issues in great detail. It plays a crucial role in educating patients about their oral health, enabling a better understanding and appreciation of treatments.
Key advantages of using intraoral cameras include:
- Improved Diagnostic Accuracy: Allows the dentist to view clear, detailed images of the mouth, aiding in early detection and accurate treatment of dental issues.
- Enhanced Patient Communication: Patients can see what the dentist sees, making it easier to understand their oral health status and treatment options.
- Better Documentation: Digital images can be saved in the patient’s medical record for ongoing monitoring and comparison over time.
- Increased Comfort: Noninvasive and comfortable to use during examinations.
