In the ever-changing dental landscape, the infusion of technology in dentistry has paved the way for accuracy, speed, and patient satisfaction. An intraoral camera stands out as the game-changer among the many dental technologies available. This transformative technology has revolutionized the way dentists understand the oral cavity. Intraoral cameras not only make dentistry easy for dentists but also improves the patient’s understanding of their oral health.
Rich Flores, DDS, LLC in Willoughby, Ohio, never shies away from newer technology as long as it’s safe and improves our patient experience. We have infused an intraoral camera in our dental services to improve our diagnostics. An intraoral scanner helps Dr. Rich Flores and the team have a close-up, real-time view of your teeth and gums for more accurate diagnosis and treatment.
An intraoral camera is a small, handheld tool used by dentists to get a better view of the inside of your mouth. This pen-sized tool has a camera attached at its tip to capture high-resolution images of the oral cavity. The images are displayed on a chairside screen in real time, allowing the dentist to make speedy diagnostics.
The camera is aptly designed to maneuver inside your mouth to capture images from all corners. The dentist can use this technology to detect signs of cracks, cavities, gum disease, and other issues. These problems might go unnoticed in a conventional exam but not under the scrutiny of this high-tech mouth explorer.
The real-time images aren’t valuable for the dentist only. They promote clearer communication between the doctor and the patient. Instead of being informed, the patients see the state of their oral health themselves, aiding comprehension of the dental issue at hand and the proposed treatments.
This state-of-the-art technology offers numerous benefits for patients and dentists. Some include:
The infusion of this cutting-edge technology in our dentistry is a statement of our commitment to providing high-quality dental care. Dial (440) 856-8774 to reserve your consultation today!
