Bluegrass Dental Associates

In order to continually provide our patients with the highest standard of dental care, we offer the most advanced dental technologies available including the intraoral camera. An intraoral camera is a tiny video camera that looks like a pen.  Dr. Shaw and his staff will use this tiny, sterilized device to capture detailed images of the inside of your mouth. He will then show you the images so you can see exactly what he sees, as well as have a better understanding of the health of your teeth and gums.  This state-of-the-art technology also enables Bluegrass Dental Associates to maintain the most up-to-date records of your treatment.

Intraoral cameras are painless and allow patients to see problems with their teeth and/or gums including tarnished or corroded fillings, fractured teeth, tooth decay, and bleeding gums and plaque. With this cutting edge technology at their fingertips, Dr. Shaw and the patient are able to work together to determine the right treatment plan to restore their mouth to optimal health. 


Benefits of Intraoral Cameras include:

* Provides patients a better understanding of their dental needs by being able to see exactly what the doctor sees.

* Allows Dr. Shaw and his staff to recognize potential problems early that could possibly be missed by a visual examination.

* Allows Dr. Shaw to effectively monitor a patient's treatment progress.
