Digital radiographs not only provide a safer option to the traditional alternative, requiring a far lower level of radiation, they are also a faster way of establishing problems at the core.
While traditional x-rays use a combination of high radiation and chemicals, to accurately assess the underlying structure and condition of your mouth, the new digital radiograph allows for a significant reduction in these elements of treatment. In addition to this, traditional x-rays require the use of developing and fixture techniques which use toxic solution.
Dental radiographs have further enhanced our ability to make accurate diagnosis of your underlying dental health, as they allow for the manipulation in viewing the assessment area, zooming in, changing levels of contrast and magnification.
Performing panoramic imaging assessment, for a more thorough visualisation of the area of treatment, this new technology has allowed for a range of benefits to enhance the patients experience of the x-ray procedure including:
- Reduced radiation by up to 80%
- Faster processing of imagery
- No chemicals
- Ability of both the patient and dentist to witness the results of the radiograph and effectively treat the condition with a greater understanding of the process involved
- Wider scope of viewing area for a greatly enhanced level of assessment and diagnostic capability
Digital radiographs are an environmentally friendly, non-toxic and safe method of assessment, making our patients experiences at Kitchener Street Dental comfortable and successful ones.
