SAY CHEESE! DIGITAL XRAY TECHNOLOGY



Dental radiographs or xrays have long been an integral part of the diagnostic portion of the dental examination. Xrays allow the dentist to see in-between the teeth and down into the bone and supporting structures in your mouth, where decay or other disease processes are likely to form. Traditionally, the typical dental xray film has been mildly uncomfortable and a sometimes dreaded event for the patient who may already have some anxiety related to the dental visit.



Fortunately, there is a state-of-the-art alternative to the outdated and cumbersome xray method that is commonly used. DEXIS is a high quality digital imaging system that has been integrated into our dental practice for many years now, with great success. And in 2001, DEXIS became the first intra-oral digital radiography system to be accepted by the American Dental Association into the highly prestigious ADA Seal Program.



So how does the this cutting-edge technology benefit you? The DEXIS digital film system provides reduced radiation, less time in the dental chair, more comfort, and a better understanding of treatment. The images are instantly viewable on the screen directly in front of the patient, so it's easier for you to see the doctor's diagnosis. Digital films are also environmentally friendly, and the instant images can be electronically transferred to any referred specialist with ease.

Digital x-rays deliver high quality images and numerous benefits for both doctor and patient.
Our office has employed digital xray technology for several years, and we are pleased to offer this innovation to our valued patients. We are always striving for the best in products and technology, and the DEXIS digital xray system is just one of many tools we are pleased to provide.
