A Clearer Picture

At Dentistry of South Jersey, we believe you should see exactly what we see. Our intra-oral cameras give you a detailed view of your mouth through pictures and videos captured in just seconds.

These hand-held wands quickly capture close-up images of your teeth and gums with clarity and detail that's simply not possible with a traditional mouth mirror. When we put specific problem areas onto a computer screen, even small cracks that often lead to broken teeth appear vividly with the click of a button.

This technology helps us provide more comfortable and efficient care. Instead of trying to describe what we're seeing, we can show you directly. That makes it easier to explain why a particular treatment might be needed and helps you make informed decisions about your dental health.

As an added benefit, dental insurance companies often process claims more quickly when we include the visual proof of a digital image.

How it works

Quick Capture

We use a small, hand-held wand to capture detailed images and videos of your teeth and gums in seconds. The process is quick and comfortable.

Review Together

Your images appear instantly on a computer screen where we can review them together, zooming in on any areas of concern.

Informed Decisions

With a clear view of your oral health, we can discuss any findings and treatment options so you can make confident decisions about your care.

Common questions

Does the intra-oral camera hurt?+

Not at all. The camera is a small, hand-held wand that we gently move around your mouth. There's no discomfort—it simply takes pictures and videos in seconds.

Why do you use a camera instead of just looking with a mirror?+

While we do use mirrors during exams, the intra-oral camera magnifies and captures details that are difficult to see otherwise. It also lets you see exactly what we're seeing, which helps you understand your oral health better.

Will my insurance cover this?+

Intra-oral imaging is typically included as part of your examination—there's usually no separate charge. Plus, having digital images often helps insurance companies process claims more quickly.
