Dental Monitoring Camera

A dental monitoring camera is a small, smart device used to remotely track your child’s dental progress—especially during orthodontic treatment. It allows the dental team to check your child’s teeth and braces (or aligners) from home using photos taken on a smartphone.


How It Works:

  • Parents or older kids use a special app on their phone and a simple camera attachment (or scan box).

  • Following easy instructions, they take quick photos or videos of the teeth, usually once a week.

  • These images are automatically uploaded to our secure system.

  • Our dental team reviews them to monitor treatment progress, tooth movement, and oral hygiene.

  • If everything looks good, there's no need to come in. If something needs attention, we’ll contact you.


 Benefits for Pediatric Patients & Parents:

Fewer Office Visits

  • Cuts down on unnecessary trips—perfect for busy families.

  • Only come in when your child really needs to be seen.

Convenient At-Home Checkups

  • Monitor braces or aligners from the comfort of home.

  • All you need is a smartphone and a few minutes once a week.

Improved Accuracy & Efficiency

  • Frequent photos mean we can catch small issues early—before they become big problems.

  • Ensures appliances like aligners or expanders are working exactly as planned.

Better Treatment Outcomes

  • Real-time feedback helps kids stay on track with their aligners or braces.

  • If there’s a problem (like broken brackets, poor hygiene, or loose aligners), we can respond right away.

Supports Better Oral Hygiene

  • Kids and parents get regular reminders and visual feedback to keep brushing and flossing on track.

Safe & Secure

  • All images are encrypted and reviewed only by our dental team.

  • HIPAA-compliant, so your child’s information stays private.
