Intra-Oral Camera
Intra-oral imaging gives you a detailed view of your mouth. Words come to life when you can see what we see. Visually transferring specific conditions in your mouth to a computer screen brings clarity simply not possible with a traditional mouth mirror. Specialized hand-held wands quickly capture the details of your teeth and gums. In fact, even small cracks that often lead to broken teeth appear vividly, just with the click of a button.
As an added benefit, dental insurance benefits frequently pay easier with the visual proof of a captured image in our records.

Frequently Asked Questions
Certainly! Here are four FAQ entries for the Intra-Oral Cameras page at Robeck Dental, focused on how they enhance diagnostics, improve patient understanding, and support comprehensive care:
What is an intra-oral camera?
An intra-oral camera is a small, pen-sized device that takes high-resolution images inside your mouth. It allows us—and you—to see detailed views of your teeth, gums, and other oral structures during your exam, right on a screen in real time.
How does an intra-oral camera help with my dental care?
These images give us a clearer, more precise view than mirrors alone, helping detect problems like cracks, decay, or gum issues earlier and more accurately. It also lets us monitor changes over time and ensure nothing goes unnoticed.
Can I see what the dentist sees with an intra-oral camera?
Absolutely! One of the best parts of using an intra-oral camera is that you can view the images on-screen with us. It helps you better understand your oral health and feel more confident and informed about your treatment options.
Is using an intra-oral camera safe and comfortable?
Yes—it’s completely safe, non-invasive, and painless. The camera is small and gentle, and most patients find it helpful and even fascinating to see such a close-up view of their smile!
