Intraoral Camera

Until recently, patients needed to rely on the dentist and team’s verbal explanations or simple drawings to understand their oral health. Now, thanks to a state-of-the-art device called an intraoral camera, you can see the exact current condition of your mouth for yourself. The camera takes high-resolution photos and video, then magnifies and displays them on a screen in real time, showing you exactly what your dentist sees.

You get an up-close view of your entire mouth, revealing cracks, stains, gum recession, cavity formation, gaps, and other concerns.

The intraoral camera represents the latest in digital imaging and is now widely considered a standard of dental care. Dr. Petinge and his team have used this technology since 1996, another example of their commitment to leading-edge dentistry and best-in-class patient care.

Using liquid lens technology, the camera delivers crystal-clear, detailed images that are non-invasive and pain-free. It is a valuable tool that your dentist and hygienist use to improve communication and help you make informed decisions about your care.

The wand-shaped handpiece that houses the camera connects wirelessly via USB or a docking station.

No longer must patients accept treatment they may not fully understand. With the intraoral camera, you can see what your dentist sees, such as a fractured tooth or a gum line that is beginning to recede. Then, you and your dentist can discuss the options and choose the treatment plan that is right for you.

STATE OF THE ART DENTISTRY

Industry leading technology for comfort and care.

Cavitron: Enjoy a gentle, efficient cleaning that uses ultrasonic vibrations to break up plaque and tartar—often faster and more comfortable than traditional scraping.

CEREC: Get custom crowns, veneers, and restorations made in a single visit—no temporary crowns, no messy impressions, and no second appointment.

Electrosurgery: Benefit from precise, controlled gum reshaping and tissue care that can reduce bleeding and support faster, cleaner healing for select procedures.

Diagnodent: Catch cavities earlier with a quick laser-based scan that helps detect decay you may not see on the surface—supporting more conservative treatment.

Intraoral Camera: See what we see with high-resolution images of your teeth and gums—making it easier to understand findings and treatment options.

Digital Panorex: Get a single, wide view of your entire mouth—including teeth, jaw, and sinuses—to help plan treatment with clarity and confidence.

Digital X-Rays: Receive crisp, detailed images with fast results and lower radiation than traditional film—helping us diagnose issues more efficiently.

Air Abrasion: Treat small areas of decay with a gentle stream that can reduce the need for a drill in select cases—often with less vibration and noise.

Oral Cancer Screening: Add an extra layer of prevention with a quick screening that checks for early signs of abnormal tissue—supporting early detection and peace of mind.
