The digital x-ray is just like the regular x-ray in that it is used as a diagnostic device. Our goal with digital x-rays is to provide you with the information needed to ensure that you make well-informed decisions about your dental treatment. When x-rays are taken at his practice, Dr. Atheer analyzes them in depth. To the eye of someone who is not well-versed in reading x-rays, everything in a patient’s mouth could look normal but a dentist, who reads x-rays on a daily basis, can see exactly what a patient’s problem areas are. Thanks to the x-rays being digitized, it is easy to blow up the x-rays and really take a look at what is going on inside patients’ teeth.
Digital x-rays are often performed when you come to the dentist office. X-rays are critical because they give the dentist and hygienist a view into the health of each patient’s teeth. Many times, dentist offices are retrofitted to make the existing equipment work on a digital format.
Getting x-rays is painless and straightforward. Schedule an appointment for an exam and a cleaning with Dr. Siro Atheer in Spring, TX today.
