Digital X-rays are faster, safer and produce higher quality images, allowing us to diagnose symptoms better and faster and develop a personalized treatment plan to eliminate pain, restore your smile and promote your long-term health.
What are Digital X-Rays?
The process of capturing a digital X-ray is similar to traditional X-rays that use film. To create a digital X-ray, your dentist will insert a sensor into your mouth to capture images of your teeth.
The difference between digital X-rays and X-rays is that the digital X-ray sensor is attached to a computer. Once the X-ray is taken, the image is immediately projected onto the computer screen for your dentist or periodontist view.
How Do We Use Your Digital X-Rays?
Your digital X-rays allow Dr. Tredinick to quickly and accurately diagnose your oral health issues and develop a comprehensive, personalized treatment plan.
We can store digital X-rays indefinitely. This allows us to compare your current images to previous images, allowing us to spot even small changes in tooth or jaw structure quickly.
