Digital X-Rays in Durham
Here at Durham Dental Anesthesia, we use the newest technology on the market. Digital x-rays provide a faster, safer way to examine your teeth. It allows our Ajax dentists to make a more accurate diagnosis and speed up your treatment.
Digital x-ray technology offers many advantages over the traditional way of taking x-rays.
- They are faster than traditional x-rays
- There is much less radiation
- Images can be enhanced
- Images are stored digitally for easy retrieval and comparison
- They can be emailed from doctor to doctor
The Scan X system that is used at Durham Dental Anesthesia seems no different to the patients when we take your x-rays. Instead of using a traditional film that needs to be processed with chemicals, we use a phosphorus plate that is scanned into the computer system and downloaded into your patient file forever.
