What Are Digital X-rays?
Digital dental x-rays, also known as digital dental radiographs, are performed during an annual dental exam to provide a better view of your oral health. They make it easier for our team to diagnose issues that aren't visible to the naked eye and to understand more about the health of the interior of your mouth, including the teeth, gums, and jaw. There are numerous oral health conditions that may be diagnosed with digital dental radiographs, including tooth decay, cavities, abscesses, cysts, impactions, and bone loss. When these issues are discovered in the early stages, they can be treated more efficiently with more treatment options. During your annual, or emergency exam at Benjamin Lievense, DDS PLLC in Saginaw, MI, digital dental imaging will help us accurately diagnose and correct dental conditions.
What Should I Expect with Digital X-rays?
Typically done at the beginning of your appointment, digital dental radiographs take about 5 – 10 minutes to do. Most patients will get a series of dental x-rays to include the needed areas of the mouth. After they are done, they will be uploaded to be viewed throughout your exam. We will be able to show you if there are any areas of concern and discuss what treatments may be needed.
