4249 U.S. Highway 9, Suite 2A, Freehold, NJ 07728 At Bordia Dental Associates in Freehold, NJ, we continuously integrate advanced dental technology to enhance patient care and diagnosis. One such innovation is the use of an intraoral camera, a tool that has revolutionized the way we view and understand oral health conditions.
A Closer Look: How Does an Intraoral Camera Work?
An intraoral camera is a small, handheld device that allows dentists to take high-definition images of the inside of a patient’s mouth. This technology provides a detailed view of teeth, gums, and other oral structures, making it easier for both the dentist and the patient to see and understand any dental issues present. Dr. Rupal Bordia, DMD, emphasizes how this tool aids in accurate diagnoses and personalized treatment planning.
The Advantages of Utilizing Intraoral Camera Technology
- Enhanced Diagnostic Accuracy: By providing clear, close-up views of your oral cavity, intraoral cameras help in identifying problems early on.
- Improved Patient Education: Patients can see what the dentist sees, making it easier to understand their oral health status and treatment options.
- Better Documentation: Images taken can be saved to a patient’s record for future reference or used in discussions with insurance companies.
Your Journey With Intraoral Camera Technology
During your visit to Bordia Dental Associates, you may experience the intraoral camera firsthand. The process is comfortable and non-invasive. A small camera-tipped wand will be gently maneuvered around your mouth to capture images. These images are then displayed on a screen for you and Dr. Bordia to review together.
Setting Your Expectations: Before and After Intraoral Camera Use
Before utilizing an intraoral camera, understanding your oral health might have been challenging. However, after its use, you’ll have a clearer picture (literally) of your dental health. This insight can empower you to make informed decisions about your treatment options.
