In many instances, x-rays are needed to confirm a diagnosis. X-rays may also be a standard part of an annual dental exam to determine if any problem exists. At Radiance Dental, we offer the latest technology to make the x-ray process safer, easier and more efficient. We are happy to offer our patients digital x-rays.
Pictures of the gums, teeth and jaw, can be taken using digital x-rays. The images are taken by using an electrical sensor, which is placed in the mouth. The procedure is fast and comfortable. The pictures are then processed through an imaging computer program, and can be displayed on a screen for you to view.
Digital x-rays are considered advantageous over using traditional dental x-rays for many reasons. The digital x-rays can be enlarged in order to get detailed images of a problem area. They also often provide clearer and more accurate images of a person’s mouth than conventional x-rays. This helps us identify problem areas sooner and prevent complications from developing.
An added benefit of using digital x-rays instead of conventional x-rays is less radiation exposure. Digital x-rays are believed to reduce your exposure to radiation by about 80 percent compared with conventional dental x-rays.
Our team at Radiance Dental is committed to providing you with excellent customer service and the latest technology. We offer a variety of dental services including periodontics, endodontics and cosmetic dentistry.
