The Dr. Janet Euzarraga, DDS, Cosmetic and Dentistry team cares enough to provide their patients with the very best – and this extends to employing the best technologies to deliver the highest level of care and treatment. That’s why Dr. E has implemented the use of digital radiography, an updated form of x-ray imaging which exposes patients to significantly less radiation than traditional film. In addition to being a SAFER method, digital radiography also does a BETTER job of more accurately identifying and tracking potential treatment areas.

One of the biggest benefits of digital radiography is it is a safer method of capturing diagnostics, with less radiation exposure for patients. In fact, digital radiography has been found to reduce radiation exposure levels for patients by up to as much as 85%!

Another plus when it comes to digital radiography is that it is also a more efficient process, from both the perspective of the dentist and the patient.  Dr. E knows that her patients value their time. The use of digital technology and the elimination of film development make for an exceptionally more rapid process, which means that everyone’s time is more productive during dental visits. Dr. E appreciates the benefit of gaining more time to communicate with patients while patients experience more “meaningful” time (vs. wait time) during their visits.

Dental radiography also provides a clearer picture of dental problem areas and needs. Viewing high-resolution image on a computer screen allows for a clearer perception of diagnostics and offers a better way for patients to visualize and understand their needs.

Finally, Dr. E and her team appreciate the “green” benefits of digital radiography. The use of technology vs. film translates into a reduction in the use of chemicals and other wasteful materials that impact the environment.  With storage of images on servers rather than in physical files or warehouses, we are able to greatly reduce our footprint while providing better care.

The advantages of digital radiography are plentiful. It is safer and more accurate way of assessing what patients need. It provides a more efficient use of time from the perspective of both the patient and the dentist, and it is a more “green” approach to dentistry. Why not help Mother Earth while achieving a beautiful smile?!

Now you know why Dr. E is among the top dental providers who care enough about their patients to say goodbye to x-rays and instead utilize digital radiography and other cutting-edge technologies to provide the best care and treatment possible!
