Cavity depth, root structure, apical infection, bone loss and filling condition are clearly visible. Uses 80% less radiation than traditional film X-ray.At Dentaline, digital sensors provide instant images. Images can be magnified on computer screen and shown to patients when needed. Capture takes 1-2 seconds and is completely painless.Digital X-ray is routinely used for root canal treatment, fillings and cavity detection. Can be repeated during and after treatment for monitoring. All images securely stored in patient digital files.
