Dexis Digital X-Rays
September 17, 2009
The future of dental x-rays is now. One month ago the new Dexis Platinum dental x-ray sensor began to be delivered to selected dentists. Computerized or digital x-rays use less radiation than traditional x-ray film. Instead of a piece of film, the digital sensor is placed in the mouth to take an x-ray. The Dexis Platinum sensor has rounded corners and a smooth covering that can help make x-rays more comfortable for patients.
An additional benefit of digital x-rays is that there is less waiting time for the doctor and patient to see the x-ray. As soon as the x-ray is taken, it immediately appears on the computer screen. Personally, I love digital x-rays because the software program allows me to make various enhancements to the x-rays which improve my ability to diagnose and treat dental conditions. The on screen enhancements also give me a unique opportunity to show patients their x-ray up on the computer screen, allowing them to see exactly what I see so that each patient can better understand the problem and the treatment options. Digital x-rays reduce exposure to radiation, lessen the waiting time, improve diagnosis and patient understanding. The future is now!
