If you’ve ever tried to hold perfectly still in an awkward position as you bite down on an rough and tasteless little piece of plastic, then you know that having dental x-rays taken can be uncomfortable.  Luckily, technology has found a way to make x-rays easier for patients and actually create better images than ever before.  Digital x-rays, now available at Village Dental Care, make dental x-ray discomfort a thing of the past.

Dr. Litman uses digital x-rays to ensure accurate diagnosis and superior dental care. Capturing an image with digital x-rays is not only faster than with traditional x-rays, it is also safer.  It reduces exposure to radiation by as much as 90 percent. 

During the process, Dr. Litman will place a small sensor into the mouth and record images of your teeth that will be instantly transmitted to a computer screen, so there is virtually no wait to see the results.  You will be able to see any problems for yourself and actively participate in the planning of any treatment options with Dr. Litman.

In addition, digital x-rays can be stored in our computer system and can be transferred to dental specialists quickly and easily if needed.
