Digital X-Rays
Sun City West, AZ
 At their dental exam, many patients express concern about being exposed to radiation when they are due for their dental x-rays. While this radiation exposure was already extremely minimal, digital x-rays utilize the latest advancements in dental technology to decrease radiation exposure by 90%! Dr. Frank W. Sallustio is a prosthodontist in Sun City West, AZ using digital x-rays in his office.
Have peace of mind at your next dental exam knowing digital x-rays are very safe and an easy way to diagnose any dental issues. With digital x-rays, a sensor with a sanitary barrier is placed inside your mouth. This sensor is moved to different positions depending on which x-rays are needed. Since there is no film, there is no need for each new x-ray to be switched out of the holder, resulting in faster appointments and less time in the chair. There is no film to be developed or mounted. Your x-rays are immediately projected onto a screen in front of you. This allows for easy explanations of your treatment options and gets you, the patient, involved in co-diagnosis.
