Dr. Lisa Kirshenbaum and Dr. Thomas Shaw may use an intraoral camera when examining your teeth and mouth. This small imaging device plays a pivotal role in ensuring that you receive the care you need.
Intraoral cameras are small, pen-shaped imaging devices. They work to quickly and comfortably capture high-quality, color images of your teeth, gums and other areas of your mouth. Because they are so small and easily maneuverable, they allow our dentists to view areas of your mouth that would otherwise be impossible to reach, giving us a better understanding of your oral health needs and allowing us to make more accurate diagnoses. It also aids in tracking treatment progress and in post-treatment evaluations.
Additionally, intraoral cameras play an important role in patient education. Captured images are transmitted immediately to a nearby monitor, where you can view them alongside our dentists to understand exactly what is happening in your mouth. Our dentists and team can also share these images with other dentists, specialists and insurance companies as needed to streamline collaboration and simplify the claims process.
By incorporating intraoral cameras into your exams and treatment plans, our dentists and team can ensure that you receive the individualized, quality care you need to maintain your oral health and smile.
