Intraoral Cameras An intraoral camera allows patients to see their mouths as we see them, up close and in living color. We can show patients carious lesions, fracture lines, leaking margins on old restorations, calculus, plaque, and exposed dentin when the enamel has been worn away due to bruxing. It is a marvelous educational tool that is easily learned and incorporated into the dental office environment by the entire staff.
Intraoral Cameras Video Exam Recline the patient in the dental chair, as you would for a conventional exam. Place the barrier-protected camera in the patient’s mouth and start the exam in your usual intraoral location. Depending on what type of system you have, you can capture views of the four worst teeth (splitting the monitor screen into more images makes them too small for any impact), every tooth, or save the entire exam on your hard drive.

Intraoral Cameras REALITY SYSTEMS DESIGNED FOR USE WITH COMPUTERS eVolution C-Series gives you a unique sliding mechanism to adjust the magnification ratio. Unlike rings that have to be rotated, this focusing mechanism can be used intraorally without much difficulty. However, the position you choose can be inadvertently changed when you pull the sheath tightly over the head and shaft of the instrument.
Intraoral Cameras the only one in this category that will allow you to rotate the images and to turn them right side up, zoom, and get a mirror view, all without connecting to a computer. There are even icons on the soft-touch control panel telling you graphically the function of each button. However, you can only save four images at a time. Aurora 2 shares the same camera with the Evolution Cseries. But what makes this product so unique and convenient is its wireless docking station.
