At Caldwell, Bills, Petrilli & West, we use small cameras about the size of a pen, called intraoral cameras, to help clearly see the condition of your teeth and gums.
With this advanced technology, we can zoom in on small diseased areas, cracks, chips, and worn metal fillings with extreme precision. The full-color images taken with the intraoral camera are sent to a computer screen, allowing us to clearly see and diagnose dental problems much earlier than with traditional dental technology. Because images are displayed on our screens, patients will also be able to see areas being worked on and are able to gain a better understanding of dental procedures being performed.
At Caldwell, Bills, Petrilli & West in Charlotte, NC, we believe that education and transparency are just as important as advanced treatment. Intraoral cameras allow us to show patients exactly what we see, which makes discussions about treatment options easier and more meaningful. Parents especially appreciate this tool, as they can visually understand their child’s dental needs and follow along with our recommendations. This technology supports our commitment to providing state-of-the-art dentistry in a comfortable and trusting environment, ensuring every patient feels confident about their care and empowered to maintain lifelong oral health.
