Digital X-Rays
Digital dental X-rays are advanced imaging technology that uses electronic sensors instead of film to capture detailed images of teeth, bones, and soft tissues with up to 90% less radiation than traditional X-rays. Images appear instantly on a computer screen, allowing dentists to zoom in, enhance contrast, and identify hidden problems like cavities between teeth, bone loss, or infections.
At BK Dental, we use state-of-the-art digital X-ray technology to provide accurate diagnosis while minimizing your radiation exposure. Digital imaging is an essential tool for comprehensive dental care.
