What Is an Intraoral Camera?

An intraoral camera resembles an oversized pen and enables dentists to closely observe hard-to-reach areas in the mouth. It allows them to see detailed images of teeth surfaces, assess your gum condition, and view other microscopic details relating to cavities, tissues, etc. 

An intraoral camera does not cause any pain or inconvenience to the patient and has no adverse effects. It takes clear videos and images of hairline fractures, tarnished or rusted restorations, bleeding gums, plaque, and other critical dental problems.
