Our office is using the Dexis digital X-ray system to provide even better dental care and more accurate diagnoses. The process of digitally capturing an image is much faster, safer and more comfortable for the patient. The sensors used are much more sensitive than regular x-ray film. By utilizing high-tech imaging, we are able to greatly reduce radiation exposure to the patient while tremendously enhancing our ability to read the x-rays. Instead of placing a large x-ray film in your mouth, we are able to use a small sensor wrapped in a sterile sleeve which is more comfortable to the patient. Once on the computer, the x-ray image can be enhanced to highlight specific conditions or areas which greatly aid co-diagnosis with the patient.
