Get a Clear View of Your Oral Health with our Intraoral Camera
Book An AppointmentAt Van Huffel DDS, we believe in full transparency when it comes to your dental care. That’s why we use an intraoral camera during every new patient visit and beyond, to give you an inside view of your mouth. This advanced technology allows you to see exactly what we see, so you can understand your oral health better and make informed decisions about your treatment.
A Real-Time Tour of Your Mouth
During your initial visit, the intraoral camera provides a virtual tour of your teeth and gums, allowing us to show you everything in real-time. Whether it’s an area of concern, such as a cavity or crack, or just an overall check-up, we want you to be fully informed. Our goal is that every time we diagnose an issue, you can see it for yourself and understand why treatment is necessary. We don’t want you to just take our word for it – we want you to see it with your own eyes.
Tracking Changes Over Time
The intraoral camera is also a vital tool during routine hygiene visits. It helps us monitor any changes in your oral health, such as gum recession, cracks in teeth, or areas of decay. By capturing detailed images, we can show you any developments since your last visit, helping you stay proactive in maintaining your dental health.
Clear Communication During Restorative Procedures
Sometimes, issues within a tooth aren’t visible from the outside. During restorative treatments, such as fillings or crowns, the intraoral camera allows us to capture images of cracks, deep decay, or other concerns that might be hidden beneath the surface. We can stop during the procedure, show you exactly what we’ve discovered, and explain how it affects your tooth’s future or what additional treatments may be necessary.
Long-Term Documentation for Your Records
One of the great advantages of the intraoral camera is its ability to document your oral health over time. We can email these images to you, and they are saved indefinitely in your dental records. This visual documentation helps us track changes, monitor treatment progress, and provide you with an ongoing record of your oral health.
With the intraoral camera at Van Huffel DDS, you’ll never feel in the dark about your dental care. You’ll always know what’s going on with your teeth, and you’ll have the confidence of seeing exactly what we see.
