Cone Beam 3D Imaging

- The jaw structure

Digital X-Rays
We use digital radiography, an advanced dental X-ray technology, to more accurately, effectively, and efficiently diagnose potential threats to your oral health. Digital X-rays are instantly viewable and expandable, which means that we can see up-close any of the following:
- Hidden tooth decay
- Oral abnormalities
- Bone loss
- Areas affected by periodontal (gum) disease
- Tumors/cysts
Not only will digital X-rays give us an accurate view of your oral health, they are also safe for the entire family. Digital X-rays use significantly less radiation than traditional film X-rays, making them the perfect option for our Flint, Michigan dentists. We typically recommend having new digital dental X-rays taken during your six-month check-ups so we can stay on top of the changes in your oral health.

Intraoral Camera
We are dedicated to giving our patients the high quality care they deserve. We are proud to offer the latest technologies and equipment to keep their mouths healthy. One way we do this is by offering our patients the intraoral camera. They always say that a picture is worth a thousand words. We use our camera for just that reason.
We can take a picture and show you what is going on with your mouth. You may not believe you have dental disease until you see the pictures. Our camera is also very helpful when we are tracking the disease’s progress. We can take before and after pictures to determine if the treatment is working. We can see how far your mouth has come and determine if more treatment or a whole different type of treatment is needed.
If you decide to get a complicated procedure, a picture may help you see what you really can’t see otherwise.
