[Tomado del prefacio] Clinical photography in dentistry is undervalued for its role in achieving best practice. It can be considered a part of biomedical imaging that uses visible light and is a suplemental tool for both documentation and communication, providing a level of reality that is accessible, comprehensible, and reliable. The advent of digital technology in photograpy has simplified both the acquisition and management of still images. This now make hight-quality digital photography feasible in the clinical settings but also makes it a growing requirement. The scope of clinical records and professional practice is extended by the ability to pictorially chronicle treatment and conditions. Digital images can add a level of objective validity to other dental records as well as provide an independent temporal reference. There are several benefits of using digital clinical photography as outlined in this book: Better records and risk-management status. Enhanced communication with colleagues. Enhanced patient education and treatment acceptance. Images of consistent quality taken quickly and efficiently.
