We believe that a picture says a thousand words.

We’ve found that sometimes an x-ray is not enough by itself to give our staff a good idea of what is going on in your mouth. For that reason, we rely on digital intra-oral photography as well.

What is Digital Intra-Oral Photography?

It’s a mouthful to say (pardon the pun!) but this kind of photography is just like the photography that you take with your phone, except far more precise and detailed! We use it to get a better image of what is going on in your mouth and identify issues before they become serious. When we see something that we need to examine further, we’ll often take a picture of it so that we can get a really clear idea of what we’re looking at.

Dr. Samarrae believes in the importance of being thorough in everything she does, and this method of photography is just another part of her commitment to providing the best patient care.

See Clearly with Digital Intra-Oral Photography at The Teal Umbrella

At The Teal Umbrella, we believe that a picture truly says a thousand words—especially when it comes to your oral health. While dental X-rays are useful, they don’t always provide the full picture. That’s why we use Digital Intra-Oral Photography as part of our comprehensive diagnostic approach.

What is Digital Intra-Oral Photography?

Digital Intra-Oral Photography is a highly precise imaging technique used to capture detailed pictures inside your mouth. Unlike traditional photos, these high-resolution images give our dental team an up-close view of your teeth and gums. With this technology, we can detect issues early on—before they become bigger problems.

Whether it’s spotting early signs of decay, monitoring gum conditions, or documenting your treatment progress, digital intra-oral images help us provide the most accurate diagnosis and effective treatment plan tailored just for you.
