Digital X-Rays

Digital X-Rays


Like just about everything else, dental x-rays have gone digital. As more and more of our lives and daily tasks are becoming digitized, you may wonder what digital dental x-rays mean for you, your smile health and what you can expect when you visit us.


Digital x-rays provide numerous advantages over previously used film x-rays. First, they’re safer—admitting 80% less radiation that conventional x-ray methods.  Since they are digital, the x-ray capture is both more compressive and precise. We are able to gain a more insightful overall view of your oral cavity and have the option of zooming in to exam specific areas.  Digital x-rays can be easily displayed and modified on a monitor, making it easy for you too to view and understand what is revealed through your x-ray exam.  Digital x-rays allow us to plan procedures and document more effectively, which is also advantageous when submitting for insurance approvals.


If you’re due for an exam or you’re ready to undergo a dental procedure, call us and ask how digital x-rays and our other capabilities can contribute to a more convenient and thorough dental care experience.
