Digital x-rays, introduced in 1987, combine computer technology with electric sensors for faster, more accurate imaging. Unlike traditional x-rays, which use film, digital x-rays project images instantly onto a computer screen, making them a preferred choice in modern dentistry.

Advantages:

Cost-Effective: Digital x-rays eliminate the need for film, reducing costs.

Better Storage: Digital images are easily stored and transferred, ensuring no data is lost when sharing records.

Higher Resolution: Digital images offer superior clarity with up to 256 shades of grey, allowing dentists to see more detail and improve diagnosis.

Digital x-rays are a faster, safer, and more efficient option for your dental care.

A CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) machine is a specialized x-ray device used when standard dental x-rays are insufficient. It creates detailed 3D images of dental structures, soft tissues, nerve paths, and bone in the craniofacial area, enabling precise treatment planning.

The cone-shaped x-ray beam rotates around you, capturing high-quality images for evaluating jaw conditions, facial bones, sinuses, and nasal cavities. While not as comprehensive for soft tissues as traditional CT scans, the CBCT machine is invaluable for reconstructive surgery, implant placement, diagnosing TMD, and planning procedures for impacted teeth. Its compact design allows for advanced imaging right in our office.

The Carestream Intraoral Camera is a compact, high-resolution imaging tool used to capture detailed images of your teeth and gums, including hard-to-reach areas. It helps detect issues like decay, gum disease, and oral cancer while offering these benefits:

Visualize areas needing better brushing or flossing.

See before-and-after treatment results.

Magnified images aid in early diagnosis and prevention.
