Digital X-rays
Enhanced Precision, Safety, and Care
Digital sensors have revolutionized the field of radiology by capturing highly detailed x-ray images with significantly reduced exposure compared to traditional film x-rays. This remarkable technological advancement in x-ray technology not only ensures patient safety but also leads to improved treatment outcomes. By utilizing digital sensors, healthcare professionals can obtain clearer and more precise images, enabling them to make accurate diagnoses and develop effective treatment plans. Moreover, the digital format allows for easy storage, retrieval, and sharing of x-ray images, facilitating seamless collaboration among medical professionals and enhancing overall patient care. With these multiple benefits, it is evident that the integration of digital sensors in x-ray technology has significantly transformed the landscape of radiology, ushering in a new era of efficiency, accuracy, and patient-centered care.
How A Digital Dental X-Ray Works
Using a compact radiographic camera, just a little bigger than a pen, we can effortlessly take pictures of each tooth, replacing the old-fashioned film used in regular X-rays. This cutting-edge technology removes the need for chemical development or processing of the images. Instead, the images instantly show up on a computer screen as soon as each scan is done, allowing both providers and patients to see them within minutes! By making small changes to the angle of the imaging wand, the provider can capture every detail of each tooth, giving immediate results and saving you from any waiting time.
Benefits Of Digital X-Rays
- Safety - Although traditional dental films require minimal radiation for image development, our digital x-ray system provides unsurpassed safety: up to 90% reduction in radiation compared to older film-based systems.
- Time Savings – Images captured instantly with a digital sensor lessen the time you spend in the dental chair.
- Better Outcomes - Improved image clarity increases Dr. Davidson’s ability to diagnose and treat conditions.
