Digital Dental Radiography

Digital sensors have replaced film in our dental operatories. Images appear immediately on screen at a significantly lower radiation dose.

What it shows

  • Decay between teeth — where it cannot be seen or felt during an exam.
  • Bone level — the measurement that grades gum disease.
  • Roots and developing teeth — including wisdom teeth and infection at the root tip.

Because images display instantly, your dentist can show you the finding and explain the recommendation while you are still in the chair.
