Digital X-rays are one of the advanced diagnostic tools we use to provide you with the best possible care. Digital radiography has changed the way we take dental X-rays by making the process faster, more comfortable, and more convenient than ever before. Digital X-rays use a digital sensor to take images of your teeth, unlike traditional X-rays that use film. Digital X-rays use significantly less radiation than conventional film X-rays and require the use of no chemicals for developing the images. Our dentist can then instantly view the high-quality images on monitors right in the treatment room to provide you with efficient, accurate diagnoses and care.

Dental X-rays are an essential diagnostic tool that helps us identify problems that may not be visible during a regular dental exam. They can detect cavities, bone loss, infections, and other issues at an early stage, allowing for timely and effective treatment. Regular X-rays are important in maintaining your overall oral health and preventing more serious problems down the line.
