We use a handheld digital X-ray unit right here in our office, allowing us to take precise images of individual teeth and specific areas of your mouth without sending you to another room. This portable technology captures images instantly and displays them on our treatment monitors so we can discuss findings with you right away.
Handheld digital X-rays use significantly less radiation than traditional film X-rays, reducing your exposure while still providing clear, detailed images. Because we can take pictures from various angles and zoom in on specific teeth and bone levels, this tool helps us detect early tooth decay, assess bone loss, monitor implant healing, and plan treatment with confidence. The quick turnaround means faster diagnosis and more efficient appointments.
