At City Dental Leeds, we are always looking to the future and are committed to continual investment in equipment and technology to ensure our clients get the best possible treatment. We are delighted to offer cutting edge treatments and use advanced digital X-rays to carry out treatment accurately and effectively.
About digital X-rays
Digital X-rays are a modern alternative to traditional X-rays, which use photographic film to produce images. Digital X-rays use digital sensors. These are more environmentally friendly and safer for both dentists and patients. Digital X-rays offer a host of benefits and enable us to make diagnoses and plan treatment effectively and quickly.
We use digital X-rays in dentistry to detect symptoms and signs, determine the nature and severity of dental injuries and plan treatment such as orthodontics and dental implant placement.
What are the advantages of digital X-rays?
The main advantage of digital X-rays is that they are safer than traditional X-rays, as they emit a much lower dose of radiation. Additional benefits include increased speed and efficiency, higher levels of accuracy and improved versatility. Digital images can be enlarged, shared and uploaded and we can send them over to other dental professionals easily and quickly if required. The images are also incredibly detailed and this enables us to show patients what exactly is going on and how treatment will benefit them, providing a greater understanding of dental problems and ensuring peace of mind.
