Our dentists use digital x-rays to improve visibility and reduce exposure to radiation. This enables us to diagnose dental problems without exposing our patients to undue risk as a result of radiation exposure.
This is a newer method of x-ray and has the ability to reduce radiation by between 80 and 90 percent. The x-rays can be seen instantly on the computer screen, without the need to wait for the film to be developed. Since our dentists can see what is happening in your mouth instantly, you can reduce the amount of time you need to spend at our dental clinic.
The images on digital x-rays are clearer than traditional x-rays, so they are easier to interpret for dentists and patients. You will have detailed information about your dental health and your dentist will be better able to make decisions for your oral health and treatments that may be needed to restore your healthy smile.
