The present invention describes a dual sided dental instrument for use in intraoral photography. Each side of the dental instrument forms a different surface providing the user the capability to use a single device for differing functions. In a preferred embodiment, the dual sided dental instrument for use in intraoral photography preferably contains a first surface having reflective materials. Use of reflective materials provides a mechanism for the dentist or dental hygienist to photograph the inner portions of the patients upper or lower teeth. The opposing side contains a surface which is adapted to provide background for intraoral images.
