Digital X-Rays-Using Dexis Digital Diagnostic Imaging

Dr. Cranham uses digital radiography to obtain a crystal clear picture of internal and external dental structures. Digital images let Dr. Cranham see things not visible during an exam, such as cavities between teeth, bone health and level, and tooth nerves and roots. The images also aid in diagnoses of cysts or tumors and help Dr. Cranham better assess damage caused by trauma.

Digital X-rays are safer that traditional radiographs. They emit about 90% less radiation and require no harsh developing chemicals. In addition, the images are immediately available for viewing and can be electronically transmitted to insurance companies and specialists.
