Dr. Michael J. Brunner and Dr. Elizabeth Prast Utilize Digital X-rays at Brunner Family Dental to Provide Superior Dental Care in Pinckney, MI
Advancements in technology have dramatically improved the dental industry over the years, enhancing every step of dental care, from diagnosis to treatment. New technology has even improved how dentists X-ray patients’ teeth, and digital X-rays have become the new industry standard. Dr. Michael J. Brunner and Dr. Elizabeth Prast use digital radiography at Brunner Family Dental to provide top-of-the-line dental care to their patients in Pinckney, MI.
Digital X-rays are taken in a similar manner to traditional dental X-rays that use film. However, X-ray images are captured by a digital sensor, rather than by film, placed in the patient’s mouth. This sensor is connected to an imagining program on a computer that projects the image for easy viewing, which allows the doctors to view the structures of your teeth more closely and with better accuracy than traditional dental X-rays. Better images for the dentist mean there is a greater chance that he will spot any problems sooner and fix them before they can become more serious or painful.
In addition to clearer images, digital X-rays also produce up to 90 percent less radiation than traditional dental X-rays. This is because the digital sensor is much more sensitive to radiation than film, so less is needed to form an accurate image. While traditional X-rays are considered safe by professionals, those who receive X-rays frequently or who are concerned about radiation will feel more comfortable with digital radiography.
With Dr. Michael J. Brunner and Dr. Elizabeth Prast of Brunner Family Dental, you know that you will receive the best dental care available in Pinckney, MI.
