Digital X-Ray

Until recently, our only option when taking a dental X-ray was the exposure of a small film packet, which then took between five and ten minutes to develop.  Now, the digital era has brought us an exciting new technology called digital radiography.

Digital radiography has many advantages over traditional dental x-rays:

• It’s faster.
• We can view images instantly.
• There’s up to 90 percent less radiation.
• We can enhance images in a variety of ways to improve viewing.
• Images can be stored electronically for instant retrieval in the  
  future, if needed.
• We avoid the chemicals used in the traditional developing process.
