Nowadays, an intraoral camera is an indispensable tool for oral healthcare. One obstacle to treating the gums is that it can be hard to show our patients exactly what the problem is. Intraoral cameras allow us to take high-quality images of the mouth at various angles and display them on a nearby monitor. If there are signs of gum disease that you normally wouldn’t notice on your own, this lets us show you exactly what the problem area looks like so that we can better explain what treatments are necessary.
