Digital X-Rays

Dr. Davis Lewis

Using the most advanced dental technology possible is just as important as staying up-to-date on the latest treatment techniques. Because our practice is dedicated to providing you with the safest and most convenient treatment options available, we utilize advanced digital X-ray technology in our office.

Digital X-rays provide several advanced imaging options designed to save time, provide clearer dental photos, and expose patients to less radiation than with traditional X-ray technology.

Panorex X-Rays

A panorex x-ray provides a full view of the upper and lower jaws, teeth, temporomandibular joints, and sinuses. It clearly shows impacted teeth or other intrabony abnormalities, and surrounding anatomy.

Panorex x-rays are often used to examine for wisdom teeth. This type of x-ray can show the relationship of the developing tooth roots to the mandibular nerve and maxillary sinus cavities. Usually, a panorex needs to be taken within the last year to accurately show the level of development of the tooth roots.

Our practice is focused on making your dental experience as comfortable as possible. At your next appointment, we'll be happy to answer any questions you may have.
