OUR TECHNOLOGY

Digital X-ray technology combines the power of computers with electric sensors instead of the uncomfortable X-ray film. This type of X-ray captures the image and stores it directly into the patient's chart. Digital X-rays reduce patient radiation exposure by up to 90% compared to the already low exposure of traditional dental X-rays.

Cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) shows the body's interior structures as a three-dimensional image. CBCT is often performed in a hospital or imaging center but is increasingly used in the dental office to identify facial bone problems, such as tumors or fractures. CT scans are also used to evaluate bone for dental implant placement and complex tooth extractions to avoid possible complications during and after surgical procedures.

In one image, this type of X-ray, which requires a machine that rotates around the head, shows the entire mouth, including all the teeth in the upper and lower arch. Panoramic X-rays are used to plan treatment for dental implants, detect impacted wisdom teeth and jaw problems, and diagnose bony tumors and cysts.
