Of course! All ages of patients are thought to be safe candidates for digital dental x-rays. Up to 90% less radiation is used by them than by conventional film X-rays. This makes them a much safer option for children and pregnant women who may have concerns about radiation exposure. Our office also follows strict safety protocols to ensure all necessary precautions are taken to protect our team and patients.

Digital dental X-rays can enhance and manipulate images, allowing for a more detailed and accurate diagnosis. The images produced by digital X-rays are also much clearer and easier to read compared to traditional film X-rays. This allows for better detection of potential issues such as cavities, bone loss, and abnormalities in the teeth or jawbone.

No special preparation is required for digital dental x-rays. However, be sure to inform your dentist of any previous X-rays taken so that they can compare and track changes in your oral health.

Digital dental X-rays have been deemed safe by various medical associations and have very low radiation exposure levels. The risk of potential harm from digital X-rays is extremely minimal.
