Digital Radiography

The Premium Healthcare Dental Center Miami uses digital radiography to capture and store dental x-rays digitally. This type of imaging technology uses electronic sensors instead of traditional photographic film to produce high-quality images of teeth, bones, and other structures in the mouth. The digital images can be viewed and enhanced on a computer screen, allowing dentists to diagnose and treat dental problems more accurately and efficiently.
Digital radiography allows for faster image acquisition, storage, and retrieval, improving overall patient communication and care.
