One of the great advances made in the dental field today is digital dental X-rays. Digital dental x-rays allow Dr. Keven Wells to see what is happening within the tooth, in the places we can’t see with our eyes. At Living Well Dental Group, we have the most up-to-date system used for digital radiography. The biggest benefit to patients is that digital dental x-rays require much less radiation to capture the image, than traditional x-rays, which makes it much safer for the patient.
At Living Well Dental Group, dental x-rays are recommended yearly to help detect potential dental problems in their early stages, therefore, saving our patients the need for more extensive and costly dental procedures. Having digital dental x-rays taken is pain-free and simple. The small x-ray sensor is placed in the mouth for a quick moment, while the digital dental x-ray is being taken. The x-rays can be immediately read by Dr. Keven Wells and shared with the patient on our big screen TVs in each patient exam room. Digital dental x-rays require no special preparation by the patient.
Follow Up after Digital Radiography
At Living Well Dental Group, we recommend digital dental x-rays to be taken once per year. Although, if you have any risk factors that may make you more prone to dental decay or periodontal disease, we may recommend x-rays to be taken more often.
