Digital Dental X-Rays

To provide you with the best, safest dental care, all x-rays taken at our office use Digital Technology instead of film. Digital X-Rays are safer, faster, more accurate and easier on the environment than traditional X-Rays. The traditional X-ray film development process requires the use and disposal of toxic chemicals. No chemicals are needed for digital X-rays, making it easier on the environment.

Safer
Many patients are concerned about radiation exposure when receiving their dental X-rays. While they have wanted the diagnostic benefit of an X-ray, they have not wanted the radiation exposure. Digital X-rays eliminate that worry.  Compared to traditional X-rays, digital X-rays reduce radiation exposure by as much as 85%.

Faster
You will not need to wait as long for the results of your digital X-ray. Traditional dental X-rays using film take 8 to 10 minutes to be developed.. Once the digital x-ray is taken, the image appears on the computer screen almost instantly, ready to be viewed by you and the dentist.

More Accurate
Digital X-rays are more accurate. The images can be enlarged  and enhanced,  making it easier for both the dentist and patient to see any problems.
