Intraoral digital imaging sensors are handheld devices placed inside a patient’s mouth to capture detailed X-ray images of teeth, jaws, and oral structures. They convert X-ray absorption patterns into digital images, enabling dentists to diagnose issues like cavities, gum disease, or bone loss with high precision and clarity.
These sensors are typically sold as standalone devices or as part of a larger dental imaging system, often requiring calibration with an external X-ray source. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on their imaging capabilities and risk level, with compliance requirements tied to safety, radiation exposure limits, and digital image quality standards.
