What It Help Us Detect

Because keeping your mouth healthy helps protect your entire body, we use intraoral cameras to catch structural and surface-level issues early:

  • Hairline tooth fractures: Microscopic cracks that are invisible to the naked eye but can cause pain or infection.
  • Early stage decay: Plaque buildup and hidden cavities forming on the biting surfaces of your teeth.
  • Gum inflammation: Early signs of gingivitis, redness, or recession that point to underlying periodontal health concerns.
  • Failed restorations: Wear and tear, cracking, or leakage around old fillings, crowns, and dental work.

Common Questions

  • Not at all; the camera is completely non-invasive, shaped like a small dental mirror, and glides smoothly through your mouth without any discomfort.

  • While X-rays show us the hidden internal structures like bone and roots, we may use intraoral cameras to capture the vivid, external surface details of your teeth and gums in full color.

  • Yes, the images stream live to the monitor directly in front of your chair, allowing you to view and discuss them with us in real time.
