Documentation

Why not documenting dental evidence (with audio) of your patients at each examination to DVD or hard disk ? It takes no more time than the examination itself. Wherever you throw the spotlight of your dental light on, that object (tooth, gums, crown...) will be shot by the camera. There is no need to dictate the findings to your dental assistant, just dictate directly to the camera microhone.

• Record pre-operation discussions before starting sophisticated treatments or surgeries.
• Shoot and archive all prophylaxis sessions to proof progress or exacerbations.
• Shoot plaque dying and bleedings after probing.  Thus you can motivate your patients.
• Proof the necessity of periodontal interventions to the health insurance companies with your videos.
• Shoot and record dental evidences, treatments, treatment outcomes and patient education to have valid video and audio proof in cases of recourse, especially in sophisticated treatments or problem patients.

Demonstration

Show to your patients
To convince your patients of the necessity of a treatment show them their cavities, periodontal pockets, bleedings, faulty crowns on a monitor screen mounted to the dental unit or later in a relaxed atmosphere in your bureau.

Show your dental technicians
Point out possible troubles to your dental technician before, during or after a prostho treatment. Show and discuss live with your technician in another city (or even in another country) articulation, esthetics or phonetics of your patient (via internet conferencing or Skype) ! You cannot demonstrate such findings with photos only !

Show treatments to children
Take away fear of anxious children, by showing them their intraoral findings and even showing them drilling caries in their own mouth. They will be distracted and even fascinated. And they will feel having total control of what happens in their mouth. So they can tell the dentist, when to stop.

Communication

Communicate with your dental lab
With the ThirdEye dental camera you´ll be able to communicate with your dental lab live via Internet or Skype, no matter where the dental lab is located or the dental technician is working at the moment. Just give him a call to start his internet video conferencing application. So you can show your dental technician an inadequate articulation, deficient crown margins, swinging bridges and everything else being of importance to him. Your dental lab will be grateful not to be obliged to visit your office every time there is a (minor) problem with one of your patients. With live internet video conferencing you even can have your dental lab on another continent.

Communicate with dental colleagues
With the ThirdEye dental camera you can "live" consult your colleagues in another city or a specialist at the university.

Communicate with health insurance companies and medical referees
Wouldn´t it be a great idea, if health insurance companies or referees would accept audio visual recordings as a criterion to accept a therapeutic and cost schedule and pay for the treatment ?
We all could save money and the patient would save time consuming visits at the referee.

Live Surgeries

In your own office
There is no better device to show intraoral shots to a broad audience than a camera, wich is mounted directly in front of the patient´s mouth. And a camera using the excellent lighting qualities of a dental light. Not to compare with the weak LED lights of intraoral cameras.
Intraoral cameras you have to put into the patient´s mouth are made to shoot intraoral still images (= photos), but they are not suitable to shoot videos (and record audio). And you have to interrupt your work when shooting a photo. Besides, all intraoral cameras on the market are video cameras, which shoot their images at video resolution, which is nothing compared to digital still image cameras !

Why should we use video cameras to shoot photos ?

The ThirdEy dental camera is a video camera too. But it is designed to shoot and record videos !
You can shoot videos (with audio) on the fly, without having to interrupt your work. You even can shoot videos while using water spray with your turbine or the chip-blower. No more inquisitive colleagues hanging their heads above your patients mouth at your live surgeries. Now they can follow your surgery, preparations or orthodontic treatments live on a big monitor or video screen.  And believe us, they will see much more details on the monitor than looking over the shoulders of the surgeon. And they will be much more relaxed. From the hygienic point of view those seminars with a crowd of dentists in the surgery room should be forbidden anyway !

On seminars and congresses worldwide
The small dimensions and weight of our ThirdEye dental cameras predispose these cameras for everybody, who wants to demonstrate live their expertise on seminars or congresses worldwide.  After hardly 10 minutes for the installation of the camera and all the cables you can start your live surgery !

Entertainment and distraction

Distraction of children
Admittedly not every patient wants to watch what is happening in his own mouth when the dentist is drilling a caries, doing a preparation or extracting a rotten tooth. But especially children are very apt to follow all the intraoral procedures with their eyes. Their natural curiosity lets them forget, that all is happening in their very own mouth. The cinema show broadcast out of their own mouth detracts their attention from the horror of drilling. Together with the soothing narration of the dentist, commenting the intraoral procedures shown on the monitor lets come through most children the inevitable procedures without the horror of  "normal" dental treatments.

Use it as a surgical loupe

Ask some of your colleagues already using our ThirdEye dental camera, which device has the better magnification - their dental loupe or our ThirdEye dental camera ?
In fact, it is very easy to remove tartar or the excavate caries controlling the procedure on the monitor. With a lot of training you´ll even be able to do preparations viewing only the monitor.
