Regular digital thermometers use electronic heat sensors to record body temperature. These thermometers can be used in the rectum, mouth or armpit. Armpit temperatures are usually the least accurate.

For older children and adults, oral readings are usually accurate â as long as the mouth is closed while the thermometer is in place.
