What Are Digital X-Rays?
Digital X-rays work similarly to traditional dental X-rays, but with modern technology that streamlines the process. Instead of using film, we use a small digital sensor, which you gently bite down on, just like traditional bitewings. Once the image is captured, it’s sent directly to a computer screen for immediate viewing—no need to wait for film to develop.
Why Choose Digital X-Rays?
Digital X-rays offer many advantages over traditional X-rays, making them a safer and more convenient option for our patients.
Reduced Radiation
Digital X-rays expose you to up to 90% less radiation compared to traditional film X-rays. This added safety is important for patients of all ages, particularly those who need more frequent imaging.
Faster Results
No more waiting for film to develop. Digital images are available almost instantly, so you and your dentist can review them together during your appointment.
Enhanced Image Quality
Digital images can be enlarged and adjusted to improve clarity and detail. This makes it easier to spot small cavities, hidden decay, infections, or bone loss—conditions that might be harder to detect on traditional X-ray film.
Easy Sharing and Record Keeping
Because digital files can be securely shared or printed, transferring your dental records is fast and hassle-free. Whether you’re moving, seeking a specialist, or filing an insurance claim, digital X-rays simplify the process.
Why Digital X-Rays Matter
Digital X-rays aren’t just about convenience—they play a critical role in preventive dental care. Early detection of issues like tooth decay, gum disease, and bone loss can help prevent the need for more extensive treatment down the road. With safer, faster imaging, you’ll get the answers you need quickly, so you can focus on maintaining a healthy smile.
