No, we’re not superheroes, but our technology comes pretty close!  

All our View Dental locations use state-of-the-art digital x-ray systems to get a detailed, accurate view of your teeth and gums, all while keeping your safety and comfort a top priority. 

What Are Dental X-Rays and Why Are They Important? 

Dental x-rays (radiographs) are a crucial part of your oral health care plan. They allow your dentist to: 

  • Detect cavities that aren’t visible to the naked eye 

  • Monitor bone levels and gum health 

  • Track the progress of previous treatments 

  • Identify infections, cysts, or impacted teeth 

During your first visit, we’ll typically take a series of x-rays as part of your comprehensive exam so we can provide a tooth-by-tooth evaluation and catch small issues before they become big ones. 

 

 Why We Use Digital X-Rays 

At View Dental, your health and safety come first. That’s why we use digital x-ray technology, which offers multiple advantages over traditional film: 

These include: 

  • Up to 80% less radiation exposure 

  • Immediate results - no waiting for film to develop 

  • Clear, enhanced imaging to support accurate diagnoses 

  •  Eco-friendly - no film or harsh processing chemicals 

  •  Secure digital storage and easy sharing with our in-network specialists 

Digital imaging helps us provide you with faster, safer, and more informed dental care
