Dental Tip of the week….if your dentist has a digital Xray system, request that it be used on you. The main reason is that these digital systems deliver about 50% less radiation to the patient (compared to traditional film) and produce an instant image. In my office we use the DEXIS XRAY SYSTEM. I love it… the image quality is the best I have seen and enables me to show you, via the computer screen, what is going on with your teeth.
