Digital X-rays

The technology used in digital X-rays allows images to be taken quickly and easily. This means less time holding still and less time needed for the procedure. And unlike traditional X-rays, the images don’t require lengthy processing times!

Because digital X-rays are made of high-contrast images, we can enlarge them. Enlarging the images allows us to zoom in on specific sections and identify problems that traditional X-rays might not clearly expose.

Digital X-rays can be stored and easily accessed for future reference or transferred instantly to other dental professionals. Instant transfers are especially helpful when your child is being treated by multiple professionals at once, such as an orthodontist and a pediatric dentist.

Dental X-rays use ionizing radiation. Our team selects images according to your child’s needs and weighs the diagnostic benefit against radiation exposure. Ask us why an image is recommended and how it will help guide your child’s care.
