Intra-Oral Videocam
The dental intra-oral video camera is a wireless device about the size and shape of an electric toothbrush. It captures images in your mouth which are instantly and wirelessly sent to an overhead flat screen TV monitor. With this high tech tool we have a wonderful new method for examining your teeth using high magnification of 10 to 40 times the human eye.
This aids the diagnosis of problems such as decay, broken fillings or cracked teeth at their earliest stages, when treatment is always easier. Sometimes a painful tooth will show no sign of a problem when seen by the naked eye, or even an x-ray. Only when magnified with a strong directional light beam, does an offending small fracture show up.
Have you ever wondered what a cavity looks like? What is the difference between a small cavity and a stained groove? What do fillings look like when they wear out? What signs indicate gum disease? What do your teeth and gums look like in those areas where the toothbrush misses? What is the condition of old sealants or other previous dental work? What is the dentist's basis for his recommendations?
All these questions can be answered with the help of the intra-oral video camera, because you will be able to see on a big video screen exactly what Dr. Loshin sees. You can participate in a real time video scan of your mouth and we can "freeze", and save, any pictures to review as still images or even enlarge for a better view.
A picture is truly "worth a thousand words." A complete understanding of your own dental conditions is paramount in achieving our goal of helping you keep your own teeth, as healthy and beautiful as possible, for the rest of your life. We are happy to provide this great tool for your benefit.
