What is Intraoral cameras?

Intraoral cameras are small, pen-sized digital cameras used by dentists to capture high-resolution images and videos inside a patient's mouth. These images are displayed on a monitor, allowing both the dentist and the patient to see areas that are difficult to view with the naked eye. This technology aids in early detection of dental problems like cavities, fractures, and gum disease, and helps patients better understand their oral health and treatment options. They are also used for documentation and record-keeping purposes.
