Inside My Teef!
October 24, 2006

Some of my teeth. And flesh.

Digital x-rays are nifty. When going to the dentist today I happened to get an every-five-year full mouth set. Fortunately earlier this year I installed a digital x-ray system at my dentist’s office.
The full set (plus one mistake where the sensor slipped from the holder) is available here: Dental X-Rays (photo gallery retired)
Be glad it didn’t look like this!

Ahahaha, wow!
You know, I forgot to ask him to use the intra-oral camera. It’s basically a close range webcam + light for use inside of mouths. Although I guess it could be used in other body holes too…

Yucky!

You wouldn’t want 10 minutes alone to take intra-minge photos?

i KNEW you’d go there…
Cavity or filling on the white spot?

White spots are fillings. I guess you can’t see top-of-tooth decay with x-rays, but between tooth stuff will show up as irregular areas.
Digital X-Ray
You help your dentist installed the digital x-ray? Do you get free dental work for life? :)
Re: Digital X-Ray
Naw. :)
That stuff was really easy to install… It’s just some special hardware and pretty easy to install software.
