Digital X-Rays

Our dentist and team use digital X-rays to diagnose and treat problems as quickly and effectively as possible. In addition to producing quality images of your teeth and supporting structures, digital X-rays also emit up to 90% less radiation than traditional film X-rays, making them extremely safe for use. Call Ideal Dentistry at 509-737-8700 to learn more about the benefits of digital X-rays in Kennewick, Washington, and make your appointment with Dr. Bradley Rowe.

One of the advanced diagnostic tools used in our office is the digital X-ray. Digital X-rays have improved the process of taking dental X-rays, making the process faster, more comfortable and more convenient. In the past, film radiography required not only more time to capture images but also the use of toxic materials to develop the image. Digital radiography, on the other hand, uses small digital sensors to capture high-quality images of your teeth and supporting oral structures. The images can then be viewed instantly on a nearby monitor. Additionally, digital X-rays are also highly safe for use due to the fact that they produce up to 90% less radiation than film X-rays.

Digital X-rays are used in diagnosing a broad range of dental problems, including:

  • Tooth decay
  • Developmental abnormalities
  • Unusually positioned tooth roots
  • Cysts
  • Abscesses
  • Fractures in teeth and existing restorations
  • Tumors
  • Infections in the tooth nerves and other areas of the mouth
  • Bone loss

Digital X-rays are also a highly useful tool in planning dental treatments and are used to plan everything from oral surgery procedures to root canal therapy, dental implant placement, orthodontic treatment and more.
