Just as the cameras on our phones are improving, so are the ones in our mouths. Intraoral cameras are small, pen-sized wands that are placed comfortably in the patient’s mouth, allowing us to capture amazing images and relay them to you on a nearby monitor so you can see what is going on in your child’s mouth. This enables our team to more precisely explain to parents the specific parts of teeth and gums, identify areas that may require a little extra brushing and flossing, and review the effects of certain treatments.
