Digital X-Ray
When it comes to dentistry, one of the benefits of digital technology is that it delivers fast, precise, and more comfortable results. And in the case of digital radiography, there are two more benefits to consider. The first is that digital radiography exposes patients to as much as 90% less radiation than traditional radiography, making the entire x-ray process safer for patients. The second is that digital radiography is better for the environment. Because your x-rays can be viewed instantly on a chairside monitor, there’s no need for us to work with the harmful chemicals that are required to develop a traditional x-ray image. And because we don’t have to worry about developing your x-rays, we don’t have to worry about filing them anywhere, either. Instead, we can simply save them to our computer, where they can be easily accessed in the future for referrals or for our own use.
