Our dentists and team continually embrace advanced technology to improve patient experience and care quality. One of our key tools is the intraoral camera, a revolutionary device that has transformed dental examinations and treatments. This technology allows us and our patients to see what is happening inside their mouths in real-time, improving understanding and involvement in the treatment process.
Understanding Intraoral Cameras
An intraoral camera is a small, handheld device that captures high-resolution images of your teeth, gums and mouth. It is about the size of a dental mirror and is equipped with its own light source, making it easy to explore hard-to-see areas. The camera displays the images on a monitor, providing a clear, close-up view of your oral cavity.
The Intraoral Camera Experience
During your visit to Lexington Heights Dental, our dentists will use the intraoral camera to conduct a thorough examination of your mouth. You will be able to watch in real-time as the camera displays images on the screen, giving you a dentist’s-eye view of your oral health. This not only helps us in detecting and explaining issues but also allows you to see firsthand what we are talking about, making it easier to understand your dental needs and treatment options.

- Improved Diagnosis: Offers a detailed view of your mouth, aiding in early detection of dental issues.
