Digital X-rays are a fundamental part of modern dental diagnostics, offering detailed imagery with significantly less radiation exposure than traditional X-ray techniques. At Elevation Family and Cosmetic Dentistry, we utilize this advanced technology to ensure accurate diagnoses and effective treatment planning. We are dedicated to providing the highest standard of care in a professional and friendly environment.
Digital X-rays allow for an in-depth examination of the teeth, bones and surrounding tissues, enabling us to detect problems that might not be visible during a routine dental exam. This technology is essential for identifying decay between teeth, assessing bone health, evaluating root health and planning orthodontic treatments.
Benefits of digital X-rays include:
- Enhanced Image Quality: Offers clearer, more detailed images for better diagnosis and treatment planning.
- Reduced Radiation Exposure: Emits up to 90% less radiation compared to traditional X-rays, making it safer for patients and staff.
- Immediate Results: Images appear on the computer screen within seconds, allowing for quicker assessments and discussions during your visit.
- Environmental Efficiency: Eliminates the need for chemical processing, which is better for the environment.
