Digital dental x-ray technology improves and simplifies the way we care for our patients’ teeth, resulting in better dental evaluations and treatment decisions. As the most important member of your dental team, you need to understand the condition of your mouth, as well as our recommendations for dental treatment. Digital x-rays help us help you!
Reduced Radiation, Radical Results
Traditionally, dentists used X-rays to see what the naked eye could not. Film X-rays were developed in a darkroom with hazardous chemicals, and then viewed on a special light board. The developed images had to be stored, which required large filing systems. By far, the biggest downside of traditional X-rays was the radiation exposure to patients. Digital radiography has completely transformed this process.
Now, when you come into the dental office for X-rays, a tiny sensor is placed in your mouth to emit a small amount of radiation - up to 90 percent less than traditional dental X-rays required. This creates a detailed image of your internal oral structures that is immediately viewable on a chairside monitor, carrying with it all the conveniences of other digitized images. We can rotate and magnify it, adjust it for contrast, and even color-code it for educational purposes. The digital images store easily and efficiently in our computer files, safe and sound. For insurance purposes, referrals, or patient education, digital X-rays can be easily, inexpensively, and accurately reproduced.
Digital dental X-rays offer unparalleled benefits over traditional radiographs: they're convenient, safe for the environment, provide a great opportunity for patient education, can be transferred and copied accurately, and best of all, they’re safer for our patients. If you have questions about digital dental X-rays, call our Norman dental office. We’ll do all we can to help.
