Digital X-rays
The newest digital x-ray systems are able to provide far superior image clarity over older systems and traditional film. The sensors that record the images require very little radiation to produce an image meaing less radiation exposure to the patient. Also because the image is produced electronically images are available in about 4 seconds versus waiting four minutes like traditional film. This is a huge benefit to patients having surgery or root cananl therapy because they no longer need to wait to see if the procedure was successful.
