Intraoral cameras are slim, handheld devices that are used to stream a high-definition video feed of the inside of a patients mouth to a computer screen so that both the doctor and patient can get a close-up view of the patients teeth and gums. They can also be used to take digital impressions of teeth, which are necessary for creating dental crowns, orthodontic treatment plans, and a variety of other services. Intraoral cameras are efficient, highly-effective, and negate the need for messy dental impressions using goopy dental putty.
