Get An Accurate Diagnosis With Digital X-Rays


Digital X-rays are one of the most advanced imaging technologies available today and are a great way to assess your teeth and gums accurately. At Green Grove Dental in St. Albert, we proudly offer our patients three options for digital X-rays.

What are the different kinds of digital X-rays?

  • Bitewing – You must bite down on a special paper so the X-ray can show how well your teeth match up. It’s used for spotting cavities in between teeth.
  • Occlusal – This is taken with a closed jaw to reveal how your top and bottom teeth line up. It can also show us any abnormalities in the mouth.
  • Periapical – This X-ray shows all the teeth in one portion of the upper or lower jaw, from crown to root.

What are the benefits of digital X-rays?

Digital X-rays are non-invasive and produce instant results that you can see on a screen. There are no uncomfortable film packets or messy chemicals to worry about — and there’s no waiting for the outcome! Digital X-rays also emit less radiation than traditional film X-rays, making them a safer option for you and your family.

Who is a good candidate for digital X-rays?

Anyone can benefit from digital X-rays during their regular checkups and cleanings. They can help detect the early stages of cavities, periodontal disease, or other conditions before they become more serious. Digital X-rays are also suitable for kids who may have difficulty holding still for traditional X-rays.
