Digital X-Rays
|
• | Diagnosing cavities |
• | Diagnosing issues with your tooth roots |
• | Diagnosing periodontal disease and its effects on your jaw |
• | Check the status of your supportive bone for implant treatment |
• | Check the status of developing or impacted teeth |
• | Monitor your oral health and prevent major complications |
• | Bite-Wing: This type of x-ray is used to highlight the crowns of your back teeth, like the molars and premolars. |
• | Periapical: This type of x-ray is used to highlight one or two teeth in their entirety, including the crown and root. |
• | Occlusal: This type of x-ray is used to highlight tooth development in children and shows nearly all of the teeth in either the upper or lower arch. |
• | Minimal Radiation: Our digital equipment exposes patients to much less radiation than previous x-ray machines. While conventional x-rays are still safe, digital ones may be the best option for people who need them regularly. |
• | Higher Quality Images: Digital x-rays can be enhanced, manipulated, and magnified to diagnose smaller instances of decay, deterioration, and fracturing. |
• | Faster Appointments: Digital x-rays result in a shorter dental appointment. Unlike traditional film x-rays, the images develop almost instantly! We no longer have to wait for film to develop. If an image comes out blurry, we can retake it right then and there. |
• | Easy Transfer: Digital x-rays are easy to transfer to your general dentist and other specialists electronically. In the past, we had to mail film x-rays to other doctors. |
• | Environmentally Friendly: Due to the digital nature of these x-rays, they are better for the environment. Film x-rays require a chemical development process that requires proper waste disposal. Digital x-rays are chemical-free and stored digitally. |
