Intraoral Camera Technology

Improving Our Patients’ Dental Experience

We’ve found that sometimes it’s difficult for our patients to understand the condition of their teeth the way that Dr. Yip and her team does. One way that we improve our patients’ dental experience is through the use of an intraoral camera in our diagnosis.

What Is an Intraoral Camera?

An intraoral camera is a small, pen-like device with a camera on the end. The camera contains a bright LED which helps us diagnose cavities or fractures that are difficult to see with the naked eye. It is also used for education. The camera is connected to a monitor which allows you to see up close what Dr. Yip and her team is seeing. This dramatically improves your dental experience by helping you understand why Dr. Yip and her team would recommend a certain treatment.

Why We Use an Intraoral Camera?

Our goal here at Dr. Yips Office is to make your experience as easy and effective as possible, which is why we use an intraoral camera in our diagnostic process. Patients have routinely expressed their appreciation of our intraoral camera. They get to see up close the state of their teeth, including problems such as cracked teeth, decay, worn-out or defective fillings, bleeding gums, and tartar.

Here at Dr. Yip’s Office, we serve patients throughout Berkeley and the San Francisco Bay Area and invite you to give a call to one of our friendly team members. Our main phone number is (510) 841-7424. You can also shoot us a quick email with any questions that you may have.

We look forward to serving you!
