Digital imaging in dentistry represents a significant advancement in the field, allowing dentists to diagnose and treat conditions with unprecedented precision. Dental X-rays are a vital part of maintaining your oral health by providing valuable information that is not visible during a regular dental exam.
Digital imaging utilizes electronic sensors instead of traditional photographic X-ray film. It captures detailed images of your teeth, gums, and other oral structures and conditions, allowing for immediate observation and analysis.
A visual examination does not always give you all the necessary information about your oral health and this is where X-rays are important. They help dentists detect possible decay or diseases that just aren’t visible to the naked eye.Dental X-rays help dentists detect diseases of the teeth and surrounding tissue that cannot be seen with a simple oral exam. They help in diagnosing problems early, such as cavities, gum disease, and even some types of tumors.
These X-rays are used to view the upper and lower back teeth simultaneously and detect decay between teeth and changes in bone density caused by gum disease.
Panoramic X-rays capture a comprehensive view of your entire mouth area—teeth, upper and lower jaws, surrounding structures, and tissues in a single image.
CBCT provides three-dimensional images that offer a highly detailed view, useful for more complex diagnostic and treatment planning, such as implant placement and orthodontics
Enhanced Diagnostic Accuracy
Digital images can be enhanced and enlarged, making it easier to detect problems early and accurately. This level of detail is crucial for effective treatment planning.
Improved Patient Comfort and Safety
Digital X-rays reduce the time it takes to produce an image and typically use less radiation than traditional X-rays. This technology improves the comfort and safety for patients.
Faster Processing and Convenience
Digital images are available almost instantaneously on a computer screen. They can be easily stored digitally and shared electronically with specialists if needed, without the degradation of quality that can occur with film over time.
