One of the advanced diagnostic tools used in our office is the DentiMax Dream Sensor to capture high-quality digital X-rays. This tool has improved the process of taking dental X-rays, making the process faster, more comfortable and more convenient. In the past, film radiography required not only more time to capture images but also the use of toxic materials to develop the image. Digital radiography, on the other hand, uses small digital sensors to capture high-quality images of your teeth and supporting oral structures. The images can then be viewed instantly on a nearby monitor. Additionally, DentiMax Dream Sensors are also highly safe for use due to the fact that they produce up to 90% less radiation than film X-rays.

This digital X-ray tool is used in diagnosing a broad range of dental problems, including:

• Tooth decay
• Developmental abnormalities
• Unusually positioned tooth roots
• Cysts
• Abscesses
• Fractures in teeth and existing restorations
• Tumors
• Infections in the tooth nerves and other areas of the mouth
• Bone loss

Capturing digital X-rays is a highly useful tool in planning dental treatments, and they are used to plan everything from oral surgery procedures to root canal therapy, dental implant placement, orthodontic treatment and more.
