Diagnose Oral Issues Quickly And Easily With Digital X-Rays

Digital X-rays, or digital radiography, are essential in modern dentistry. These images provide remarkable diagnostic capability and replace traditional film X-rays. At Fifth Avenue Dental Centre in Vancouver, we use digital X-ray technology to ensure our patients get an accurate diagnosis.

How are digital X-rays used at Fifth Avenue Dental Centre?

Our knowledgeable and experienced staff will position the X-ray sensor in the correct position to capture a specific part of your mouth. The sensor reads the X-ray’s signals and transfers them to a computer screen, storing them as an electronic image. This process is quick and easy and requires minimal radiation exposure.

What oral issues can digital X-rays diagnose?

Digital X-rays enable us to detect dental decay, bone loss and cysts. They can also help with the diagnosis of impacted teeth and abscesses. They let us see your mouth's gumline, roots, and bone structure. Digital X-rays are an invaluable tool for us to diagnose your oral health problems properly.

What are the benefits of using digital X-rays?

Digital X-rays provide a comprehensive and detailed image of your mouth. The images are stored securely on our computer system so they can be used for comparison in the future. Digital X-rays emit 90% less radiation than traditional film X-rays. There is no harmful environmental waste, and results are instantly available. The images can be enlarged for clarification with no distortion.
