Our x-ray technology is vital in planning your dental solutions. Digital x-rays reduce the amount of radiation given to a patient because it is exposed at a lower dose than that of the traditional x-rays. They are also environmental friendly because there is no paper waste, no lead film inserts, and no chemicals are being used to process them. The digital x-rays help us see your bone and teeth with high clarity, find minute details that are impossible to see with the naked eye, and because of this, catch small dental problems, like cavities, before they become a big problem! We are able to view the x-ray on the computer screen and show patients what we see. We also take panoramic x-rays, which is a broad view of your jaw, sinus cavities, nasal area, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ). This picture assists in the detection of impacted teeth and third molars, abnormalities in the bone, missing teeth, tooth development in children, tumors, cysts, and a critical tool when planning and completing an implant.
