X-rays are an invaluable tool in dentistry that allows your dentist to look below the visible surface and intercept decay, infection, extra teeth, and other potential oral issues. Current radiography technology enables us to capture this in-depth look more effectively and safely than ever with digital x-rays. Images are more precise and reduce radiation exposure by as much as 90% compared to traditional x-rays. If we need to refer your care to an outside specialist, the images are also easily transferred between offices.
The best treatment plans involve you throughout every step of the process. Still, it can be challenging to communicate specific information without actually showing you what is going on in your mouth. With the intraoral camera, we can do just that.
It is a small, handheld tool tipped with a tiny camera. Your dentist uses the intraoral camera to capture images transmitted to a small screen at your chairside.
