Digital X-Rays

Dr. Kusek can use digital X-rays to examine your mouth for signs of developing problems. The high-quality images captured by this technology make it easier for our dentist to diagnose problems and plan treatments that will meet your needs.

Digital X-rays are one of the advanced diagnostic tools we use to provide you with the best possible care. Digital radiography has changed the way we take dental X-rays by making the process faster, more comfortable and more convenient than ever before. Digital X-rays use a digital sensor to take images of your teeth, unlike traditional X-rays that use film. Digital X-rays use significantly less radiation than conventional film X-rays and require the use of no chemicals for developing the images. Our dentist can then instantly view the high-quality images on monitors right in the treatment room to provide you with efficient, accurate diagnoses and care. Our team is able to use digital radiography to identify and diagnose several types of dental problems, such as:

Decay in between teeth
Developmental abnormalities
Improper tooth root positioning
Cysts and abscesses
Fractures in existing fillings
Tumors
Infection in the tooth nerves
Bone loss

Digital dental X-rays are used to plan many kinds of dental treatment, such as oral surgery procedures, root canal treatment, dental implants, orthodontics and more. To learn more about digital radiography and how we use X-rays at our office, we welcome you to call or visit us soon.
