Intra-oral Cameras in Renton, WA

What is an Intra-Oral Camera?

Intra-oral cameras allow us to see everything going on inside your mouth. Rather than a typical examination, this camera magnifies everything that it looks at, allowing us to see areas of decay, cracks, breaks and fractures as well as other intra-oral problems. The camera is safe, effective and can be used on patients of all ages.

Why is an Intra-Oral Camera needed?

We need to get a better view inside the mouth. Because the camera magnifies what it comes into contact with, we can spot problems easier and more conveniently. We can also show you the findings on the camera so you know more about the treatment that is needed.

Who is a candidate for an Intra-Oral Camera scanning?

The majority of patients can and will benefit from the intra-oral camera. It gives a clear view of everything going on within the mouth, helping us find problems more quickly and create treatment plans. The camera can be used before, during, or even after certain procedures.

What happens during the appointment using an Intra-Oral Camera?

You sit comfortably in one of our examination rooms. We use a handheld device and place it inside the mouth, with the image showing on a computer screen so you can see what we’re looking at. We scan your mouth looking for problems and other issues, then discuss treatment options. The camera is easy to use and takes just minutes.
