ResolutionHow much detail an image can holdPixel count and bit depth of each pixelAs the number of pixels increases, the image’s
detail becomes sharperNumber of megapixels – camera’s resolutionDisplay’s resolution – expressed in pixels per
inch (ppi)

Focal lengthLens’s magnification powerLonger the focal length – more the
magnification power

ApertureA hole in the lens through which light passes
on its way from subject to the filmDOF – depth of fieldTo make one object stand out of a wide viewReduce aperture size
Increase in depth in a picture
![Page 13: Clinical photography in dentistry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070602/587702251a28ab890e8b49a5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

How much picture comes out sharply and how much doesn’t
This zone of sharpness is called as depth of field
Can be controlled by 3 main factors –Aperture – smaller the aperture more extensive
the DOFFocal length – shorter the focal length, greater
the DOFCamera to subject distance – greater the
distance, deeper the DOF
Depth of field (DOF)
![Page 14: Clinical photography in dentistry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070602/587702251a28ab890e8b49a5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Camera position for lateral view

POSITIONING THE PATIENT The position of the patient is important to
the camera view and to the operator’s ease in making the view
For most straight anterior views, the patient should be in a semi upright position with a slight tilt backwards
In a contour chair, the patient must turn his head to the side so that the operator does not have to lean sideways over the chair and patient.
![Page 27: Clinical photography in dentistry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070602/587702251a28ab890e8b49a5/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
OPERATORY DENTAL LIGHTIt should not be directly on the teeth
Keep the light on the side of the cheek and out of the mouth
The light is only needed to give enough light to focus by
When the dental light is bright or strong on the side of the arch that should have the greatest contrast, it will kill the contrast produced by the flash.

Direction of pull of retractors is always sideways and slightly forward, away from gingival tissue
Wetting the retractors just before insertion eases the process of positioning them with minimum patient discomfort
Taking occlusal mirror shots, slightly warming the mirror in warm water prior to insertion helps prevent fogging of the mirror
Saliva ejector can be used to eliminate saliva prior to taking each photograph
Helpful tips
![Page 39: Clinical photography in dentistry](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070602/587702251a28ab890e8b49a5/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

During occlusal mirror shots, instruct the patient to open wide just prior to pressing the camera button. This helps in obtaining maximum mouth opening at the right moment, and minimizes patient’s fatigue during the procedure
It is recommended that all photographic records to be taken before impression making, to eliminate the possibility of impression material being stuck between the teeth or the face during the procedure

Minimum camera resolution for orthodontic purpose would be around 3-4 megapixels
DSLR cameras are highly recommended for taking orthodontic photographic records
Patient should be standing in front of a plain white background when taking extra-oral shots
