INTRAORAL CAMERA

At Village Family Dentistry in Farmington Hills, MI, we use an intraoral camera to closely examine your smile. This small, pen-like tool captures high-quality, full-color images of your teeth and gums, revealing details that are difficult to see with the naked eye. It helps us diagnose issues such as cavities, periodontal disease, and tooth damage, and is valuable for post-treatment follow-ups.

The intraoral camera enhances our ability to assess your oral health and communicate findings with other professionals and insurance providers. If you’re interested in learning more about this technology and its benefits, contact us today to discuss how it can improve your dental care.

3D CT CONE BEAM

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), or 3D dental imaging, offers a more detailed view of your oral and facial structures compared to traditional 2D x-rays. Unlike flat images, CBCT provides a comprehensive 3D view, allowing us to examine teeth and surrounding anatomy from multiple angles and gain a better understanding of their function.

Purpose of 3D CT Imaging: We use 3D CT scans to enhance dental care in various situations, such as assessing and treating TMJ dysfunction, creating precise surgical guides for dental implants, planning oral surgeries like tooth extractions, and ensuring the effectiveness of root canal therapy.

Advantages of 3D CT Scanning: 3D CT scans improve patient care by displaying detailed images on monitors in the dental chair, helping you understand your oral health and treatment options better. These images can be zoomed in on or highlighted for clarity, and shared instantly with dental labs, insurance providers, and specialists. This streamlines the treatment process, makes comparisons easier, and ultimately leads to more effective and successful dental outcomes.
