  • Taking Orthodontic Pictures for Braces or Invisalign is extremely important. Anyone who has worked with me or any of our Orthodontists knows that taking proper orthodontic pictures is vital for treatment planning, showing patients before and afters, record keeping, and being professional.
    Taking amazing pictures is a craft that I highly believe in. I also think with proper training and knowledge anyone can take perfect pictures.
    The goal of this video is to show you how we take pictures at Thrive Dental and Orthodontics. I have been taking the same style of pictures since I was in my residency at USC.
    For any office, you will take at least 5 intraoral pictures and 3 extraoral pictures. Some offices may even take more pictures of the patient half-smiling and various other extraoral photographs.
    I believe good quality pictures show patients you are a professional office, helps the doctor's treatment plan properly, create better communication if you need to discuss the patient with anyone else, and also just look amazing.
    I still look at my before and after pictures from when I got braces when I was in my 20s.
    Some key concepts you should know after this video:
    1. Camera settings
    2. Order of picture taking
    3. Plane of occlusion and how to adjust accordingly
    4. How to take intraoral pictures
    5. How to take extraoral pictures
    6. How to use a mirror to take pictures
    7. How to use cheek retractors to take pictures
    8. How to communicate with patients during the picture taking process
    This video is meant to be educational for orthodontic assistants. It is also the second video in a series for orthodontic assistants at Thrive Dental and Orthodontics. If you want more information check out our website.

    You can run the mirror under hot/warm water before inserting to also help prevent fogging

    This is a great video! I'm learning how to take orthodontic pictures and it has been difficult for me. In my class we have been using a mirror for the intra-oral left and right pictures but I am really struggling. Any tips for taking those types of pics with a mirror?

    • @ThriveDentist
      @ThriveDentist  Před 3 lety +3

      Yes. Don't do it;) We used to use mirrors for left and right and I hated it too.

    Why do you wear gloves if there if no direct contact to the mouth?

    Do you recommend using an iPhone to take intra oral before and after photos in orthodontics?

    Can you tell me what camera are you using??? We have a Nikon at work but not the easiest camera to use. I like yours so much better.

    • @ThriveDentist
      @ThriveDentist  Před 3 lety

      I have only used Canon DSLR cameras for ortho. All their models work well even their old basic models from ten years ago.

    Can you please share what kind of camera, lens, and flash you use? Or Would you recommend which camera is the best for intraoral & headshots?

    • @ThriveDentist
      @ThriveDentist  Před 3 lety

      I use the standard lens that comes with most cameras. I used to use a macro lens but I didn't like it as much.

  • @oanalesnic79
    @oanalesnic79 Před 2 lety

    What if an orthodontist didn't take pictures at all? She didn't take pictures before not after the removal of my braces. Is that medical malpractice or negligence?
