At Dr. Ernesto Perez Miami we are committed to providing our patients in Miami, FL with the best and fastest dental care possible. One of the tools we use to achieve this is digital X-rays. This diagnostic tool allows us to see your mouth with never before seen clarity and precision.
Digital X-rays are a huge step up from film X-rays. They offer many benefits that improve the care we provide and the patient experience. When you come to our Miami dental office you will see the difference right away.
One of the biggest advantages of digital X-rays is the speed in which they produce images. Within seconds we can take and display high resolution images of your teeth and surrounding structures on a computer screen. This means more efficient diagnosis and treatment planning and less time for you during your visit.
The image quality of digital X-rays is better than film X-rays. The clarity and zoom ability allows our dentists to see even the smallest signs of tooth decay, gum disease or other oral health issues. Early detection is key to preventing small problems from becoming big problems and potentially saving you from more extensive and costly treatments down the line.
Another advantage of digital X-rays is the reduced radiation. While dental X-rays already use low levels of radiation, digital X-rays reduce that by up to 90%. This makes them an even safer option for our patients in Miami, Florida especially for children or those who need frequent X-rays.
Digital X-rays also help us with our green practices. By eliminating the need for film and chemical processing we reduce waste and don’t use harmful chemicals which fits with our commitment to sustainability in dentistry.
The digital X-rays allow us to share images with you to help you understand your oral health. We can zoom in, adjust contrast and use color coding to highlight areas of concern so you can see and understand your dental condition better. This leads to more informed decisions on your treatment options.
Plus digital X-rays make it easy to collaborate with specialists if needed. We can send your X-rays electronically to other dental professionals quickly and securely so there’s no need for repeated X-rays if you need specialized treatment.
At Dr. Ernesto Perez Miami we use digital X-rays for:
- Detecting cavities especially in hard to see areas
- Identifying bone loss from gum disease
- Examining roots of teeth and surrounding bone structure
- Planning for dental implants, orthodontic treatment or extractions
- Monitoring teeth development in children and adolescents
We understand every patient is unique so we tailor our use of digital X-rays to your specific needs. Whether you’re coming in for a routine visit or a complex procedure you can rest assured we’re using the latest technology to keep your mouth healthy. Digital X-Rays are fundamental for routine examinations, they often work in concert with other advanced dental technologies. For more complex cases, 3D Cone Beam Imaging can provide detailed, three-dimensional views that complement the two-dimensional Digital X-Rays.
