Digital X-Rays
Dr. I. Costache & Associates, Your Bloor and Dufferin Dentist, Utilizes X-Rays to Quickly and Safely Assess Your Dental Health
What is the foundation of your smile? Digital X-ray technology provides a faster and safer way to closely examine your teeth. These X-rays speed treatment and provide a more accurate diagnosis of your teeth.
What are the advantages of digital X-rays? The advancement of digital X-ray technology has many advantages over traditional X-rays. Some of these are outlined here:
- Digital x-rays are much faster than traditional X-rays
- There is much less radiation
- The images can be enhanced for a more thorough diagnosis
- Images are stored digitally for easy retrieval and comparison
How Does It Work?
It’s quick and easy! We place a small sensor in your mouth which is connected to a computer with a tiny wire. An x-ray beam is then sent through your teeth which records the image of your teeth and sends it to a computer. The sensor can be re-positioned to photograph other sections of your teeth.
