Intraoral Camera
See What We See with Advanced Intraoral Imaging
At LoPresti Dental Group, we believe in providing our patients with the latest in dental technology to enhance their care and experience. One of the advanced tools we use is the intraoral camera, a small, highly effective device that allows us to take detailed images of the inside of your mouth.
What is an Intraoral Camera?
An intraoral camera is a compact, pen-sized device equipped with a high-resolution camera. It captures clear, precise images of your teeth, gums, and other areas inside your mouth. These images are displayed on a monitor in real-time, allowing both you and your dentist to see exactly what is happening in your mouth.
Benefits of Using an Intraoral Camera

- Visual explanations enhance your confidence in the diagnosis and treatment plan.
