What Are Digital X-Rays?

Digital X-rays are a cutting-edge diagnostic tool that improves the way we provide dental care. Digital radiography makes the X-ray process faster, more comfortable, and more convenient than ever. Unlike traditional X-rays that use film, digital X-rays utilize a digital sensor to capture images of your teeth. They use significantly less radiation and do not require chemicals for developing images. Our dentists can instantly view high-quality images on monitors in the treatment room, allowing for efficient and accurate diagnoses.
