This technological advancement significantly improves the X-ray process, making it faster, more comfortable, and more convenient than ever before. We employ digital X-rays to provide you with the highest level of dental care possible. The primary difference between digital X-rays and traditional ones is how the image is captured: instead of film, this technology uses a digital sensor to create images of your teeth.
This translates into several key advantages. Firstly, the image is captured much more quickly, resulting in significantly less radiation exposure for you compared to traditional film X-rays. Secondly, there's no need for chemical development, which leads to the third benefit: our dentists can instantly view these high-quality images and even share them with you in real-time.
With digital X-rays, our dentists can provide accurate and efficient diagnoses and care, allowing you to understand your situation and treatment plan right along with them! Dental problems viewable on these X-rays include:
- Tooth decay between your teeth
- Abnormal development
- Mispositioned tooth roots
- Fractured fillings
- Abscesses and cysts
- Tumors
- Tooth nerve infection
- Loss of bone mass
