The art of taking a photograph of your patient’s teeth and smile is extremely important for the restorative dentist.  “A picture is worth a thousand words,” an altruism that reflects a meaningful consultation with your patient.  Dental photography allows us the opportunity to view teeth during a consultation in a way that was rarely offered in years’ past.   It can be extremely eye opening to both the patient and the clinician.  These photography techniques assist us with direct and concise communication, gaining case acceptance and future learning capabilities.

What you will learn:

• The proper equipment needed for dental photography (Retractors and Mirrors)
• The proper camera body, lenses, and use of flash
