Radiographs (x-rays) are taken of the patient’s teeth by placing the film or sensor in the mouth.
The dentist then examines the developed image, and interprets the health of the teeth and any further treatment required.
At Beacon Cove Dental, we have installed the latest in digital xray technology to improve service by providing fast and accurate images allowing our dentists to ensure accuracy.
Digital xray sensors also mean we can use 90% less radiation to create an xray image, this means that you are exposed to far less radiation then with film xrays.
The other advantage, is that we can show you the results straight away, pointing out any issues and treatments on screen.
