Abstract:
phones to take helpful images with high efficiency in various
types of dental procedures. In our dental practices’
photography is an effective tool. Its applications are
widespread such as in the diagnosis and treatment planning,
keeping an illustrative clinical history, legal documentation,
publishing, and delivering lectures.1 In modern dentistry,
photography has grown into a standard of treatment. With
the advent of digital technology these days, photography
has now become simpler and widely available. Even then,
few practitioners introduce them in their daily practices due
to reasons such as a lack of expertise in cameras, lenses,
and technique, disruption of workflow, and cost
considerations. The use of smartphones with improved
technology, however, is constantly emerging. It allows every
practitioner with minimal interruptions in their patient
workflow to incorporate photography into his or her practice.2
Making images from mobile in dentistry has multi-level
importance. Its implementation in dental practice is simple,
swift, and extremely useful in recording working practices,
conducting health promotion sessions, and administering
clinical examinations, thus providing dentists and patients
with many advantages.1-2
