Digital X-Rays
Kimberly Smiles uses Dexis digital radiography which allows us to take x-rays faster and with less radiation. With Dexis the sensor is merely moved from tooth to tooth, and because the unit is so sensitive, the amount of x-ray radiation is up to 80% less than with conventional x-rays. Your x-rays can be seen on a computer monitor just moments after exposure–there’s no waiting for chemical development. The lack of chemicals also makes digital x-rays safer for the environment.
Digital x-ray technology enables more efficient diagnosis and treatment because it provides a large, easy to see image, and allows us to make adjustments and see detail in the x-ray images. The digital x-rays become part of your dental record and can be easily emailed to specialists and insurance companies.
