The small camera head has a fixed focal range of about 8-10 mm and its high resolution CCD image sensor provides extremely detailed and true colour pictures on screen, it has to be seen to be believed! There is no provision for printing or saving monitor images but it could be easily connected to a surgery computer via an inexpensive on board computer video capture card for image storage or colour print-out via a suitable colour inkjet printer.
The camera is small, light, non threatening and easy to use . It is a great
tool for patient education, oral hygiene instruction and for use in discussions
of various treatment options . It will improve acceptance of patient
treatment by their visual integration into the treatment process.
They will no longer just have to take your word but can now be shown why
