Dental Photography

Dental photography uses a set of standard photos of the face, smile and teeth, taken at the start of treatment and at key points along the way. Together they form a visual record of your case.

What the photos are for

  • Diagnosis — showing how the teeth, lips and face relate to one another.
  • Progress tracking — comparing changes from visit to visit.
  • Before and after — a clear record of how far your smile has come.

Part of your records

Photos are used together with scans and x-rays to plan treatment and to help you see your progress.
