Digital X-rays provide detailed images of teeth and surrounding structures while minimizing radiation exposure. This advanced imaging technology allows for early detection of dental issues and more precise treatment planning. At Prime Dental Care, we use digital X-rays in Montgomery, New Jersey, to ensure high-quality care and improved patient safety.
How Digital X-Rays Work
Digital X-rays use electronic sensors to capture high-resolution images of the teeth, gums and jawbone. Unlike traditional film-based X-rays, digital X-rays produce immediate results, allowing dentists to quickly assess a patient’s oral health. The images are displayed on a screen, making it easier for patients to understand their dental conditions.
Dr. Joyce Ma utilizes digital X-rays to detect dental problems early and create customized treatment plans for optimal oral health.
