  Digital X-raysDigital x-rays are far better than traditional film for many reasons. Digital x-rays allow the doctor to get a much better view of your teeth and potential dental conditions. The digital imaging software allows the doctor to see a number of different views of the tooth to gain a better understanding of the proper course of management. Digital x-rays provide a great benefit to the patient. Not only are they an excellent diagnostic tool, but they decrease radiation to the patient by over 80%. Digital x-rays are instant, no more waiting for the film to develop. Digital X-rays can easily be sent via email all around the world at the patient's request. The doctor can explain dental conditions on a chair-side monitor and he can use a special computer program to simulate a dental restoration. Patients find this imaging very useful to understand the treatment that is necessary.  |
