About Digital X-Rays & Diagnostics
Every treatment decision we make is only as good as the diagnosis behind it. Accurate, high-quality imaging is not optional, it is the foundation of safe dental care. We use digital radiography as our standard system for intraoral and panoramic X-rays.
Digital X-rays produce sharper, higher-resolution images than conventional film, are available on screen within seconds, and deliver significantly lower radiation exposure, typically 80% to 90% less than conventional film X-rays. Images can be enhanced, zoomed, and compared across appointments to track bone loss or cavity progression. For complex cases (implants, impacted teeth, jaw joint issues), cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scanning provides a three-dimensional volumetric image of the jaws, allowing us to assess bone density and nerve locations.
Diagnostics available:
- ✓Intraoral digital X-rays (for individual teeth & cavities)
- ✓Orthopantomogram (OPG full-mouth panoramic overview X-ray)
- ✓Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) 3D imaging for implants
- ✓Intraoral camera live feeds (so you can view your teeth on screen)
- ✓Digital impressions using advanced intraoral scanning wands
Radiation reduction:
Our portable digital X-ray units are heavily shielded, exposing patients to a minute fraction of background radiation, with instant digital processing.
We show patients their X-rays on a high-definition chairside monitor and explain the findings, so you know exactly why a treatment is recommended.
