Dental X-Rays
|
Radiographs, commonly known as X-rays, help us identify unseen dental problems. Using x-rays helps us see hidden dental problems and also lets us see malignant or benign masses and check for bone loss. We want to help you detect issues before they become problems. This will help you keep a healthier mouth and can save you money. Small problems develop into larger problems when they are ignored.
Digital X-Rays
At James Swanson, DDS, we use digital x-rays, versus X-ray film. Digital radiography uses digital image capturing. This allows us immediate image previews and availability. It also eliminates costly film processing and allows us to enhance the overall display of the image. We can enlarge and zoom in on areas of interest. Other advantages over traditional film based x-rays include:
| • |
instant access to images. |
| • |
viewed on a computer screen right next to your chair. |
| • |
enlarged images. |
| • |
up to 90% less radiation. |
| • |
we can easily send the images to specialists for further examination and second opinions. |
