Intraoral Camera

Many patients, especially younger patients, are very familiar with the latest technology and are more comfortable with a high-tech practice. Computers, mp3 players and LED TV’s are the primary method of information processing.

Drs. Brooks and Dunston utilize intraoral camera technology that helps enhance your understanding of your diagnosis.  An intraoral camera is a very small camera. In some cases, just a few millimeters long.  An intraoral camera allows our practice to view clear, precise images of your mouth, teeth, and gums, in order for us to accurately make a diagnosis.  With clear, defined, enlarged images, you see details that may be missed by standard mirror examinations. This can mean faster diagnosis with less chair-time for you!
Intraoral cameras also enable our practice to save your images in your electronic dental record to provide a permanent record. These pictures can be printed or emailed to you, to other dental specialists, and to the dental lab or insurance company.
