Low-Radiation X-rays at Our Katy, TX Office
Orthodontic x-rays are an accurate and efficient way to evaluate the alignment of your teeth. They are used to identify a number of issues related to unerupted teeth, jaw structure, and bones. Breakthroughs in technology such as low radiation digital x-rays continue to make the procedures we perform safer and more precise in evaluating our patients’ bites. At Katy Orthodontics, comfort and expertise are our priorities, which is why we utilize low radiation digital radiography methods.
In addition to improved safety, digital x-rays are faster to prepare and can be easily emailed to your general dentist if necessary. They also allow us to diagnose the problem more accurately and precisely.
The latest technology at our office also enables us to take 3D digital x-rays that allow Dr. Dhutia to get a detailed view of your mouth and jaw structure. Known officially as Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), three-dimensional x-rays provide a number of advantages including:
- High resolution images: Dr. Dhutia can see the patient’s teeth with unprecedented detail.
- Less Radiation: Patients’ health and safety is Dr. Dhutia’s greatest concern.
- Comfortable Positioning: The technology makes exams more comfortable, with both seated and standing options to accommodate patients of all sizes.
- Improved care: Dr. Dhutia can perform a wider range of diagnoses with an even greater accuracy.
