At our dental practice, we use small cameras about the size of a pen to help see the condition of your teeth and gums. These cameras are called intraoral cameras, and they supplement any examination and treatment you might receive at our office. With this advanced technology, we can zoom in on small diseased areas, cracks, chips and worn fillings with extreme precision to see how Dr. Joseph Szymczak can better remedy the problem. The live, full-color images taken with our intraoral camera are sent to a computer so that we can more accurately diagnose dental problems much earlier than with traditional dental technology. Because the high-quality images are almost immediately displayed on our screens, we can show you the areas being worked on and better explain the procedures to you so that you will be confident in the work done by Dr. Szymczak. If needed, the images provided by the intraoral camera can also be sent to dental specialists, other healthcare providers and professionals and your insurance company.
