THE PHOTOGRAPHY – A DIAGNOSTIC TOOL IN DENTISTRY
Abstract:
Dental Photography was and remains an indispensable constituent in the academic world of
dentistry. For a very long time dental photography was considered to be an instrument exclusively
reserved for scientific environment, its main utility consisting in documenting the current cases so that
specific academic activities (e.g. courses, publications, conferences etc.) may take place. The
development of technology as well as its accessibility transformed dental photography. It thus ceased to
be a privilege of a small number of doctors and became an instrument useful to all practitioners who
desire a qualitative increase of medical care. The importance of dental photography involves multiple
aspects more or less applied in daily practice. In this article the authors seek to illustrate the importance
of using dental photography as a useful diagnostic tool in the daily activity of the private dental office.
