Digital X-rays
With digital x-rays, our dental specialists can identify numerous issues including gum disease, deep cavities, tooth decay, tumors, and cysts. We utilize the most current dental technology to take digital dental x-rays in lieu of traditional X-rays. There are advantages to digital x-rays such as:
- Low dose radiation, less radiation exposure than traditional x-rays
- Higher quality images that can be emailed to you
- Easier to diagnose dental issues or other pathology
- Increased comfort with the use of sensors
Our dentists use digital panoramic x-rays to view the patient’s entire mouth as opposed to looking at isolated areas. This allows us to plan comprehensive full-mouth restorations and improved orthodontics treatment recommendations with better detail.
Intraoral Camera
An intraoral camera is a small video camera (about the size of a dental mirror) that enables you to clearly see what we are viewing inside of your mouth. It can zoom in and provide a magnified view of your teeth and gums on a TV or monitor. This helps us to better assess your dental health and to educate you about your diagnosis and treatment options.
Dental Magnification Loupes
In addition to high-tech dental X-rays and intraoral cameras, we also utilize magnification loupes, which are special vision-enhancing devices that surgeons use to see with greater detail and work with greater precision. At Suwanee Center for Family Dentistry, our highly-trained dentists use these same special prismatic glasses to achieve the best results when working in a small space, where accuracy is essential.
