Digital X-Rays Springfield, MA

Overview

Digital x-rays, also known as digital radiographs, are done with an annual dental examination to allow a better view of your oral health. X-rays allow our dental team to diagnose concerns that are not visible by the naked eye, and to learn about the health of the inside of your mouth like your teeth, gums, and jaw. There are several oral health conditions that can be diagnosed with digital images such as decay, cavities, cysts, abscesses, bone atrophy, and impactions. When these conditions are discovered early, they may have more effective and less invasive treatment options. During your annual exam at People's Dental in Springfield, MA, x-rays will help our team to accurately diagnose and treat oral health conditions.

Best Candidates

In most cases, x-rays are a part of your dental exam. They can be administered as part of a preventive dental treatment plan or if you are experiencing pain in your mouth. Though digital x-rays use less radiation than film x-rays, People's Dental likes to minimize patient exposure. While they are usually safe for any patient, women who are breastfeeding or may be pregnant should talk to a team member at the beginning of the appointment so extra precautions can be taken.

What to Expect

Often done at the beginning of your dental exam, digital x-rays take about 5 – 10 minutes to complete. Most patients will have a series of x-rays taken to include all areas. After they are complete, they are uploaded to be viewed during your examination. Our team will assess if there are any areas of concern and go over treatment options.

Your digital images will be stored in your oral health file at People's Dental so our team can view changes over time and chart any developing problems.
