Making the switch to digital x-rays provides a dental practice with numerous benefits. Digital sensors are more efficient and faster to use, can be more comfortable for patients, can offer larger and more diagnostic images, and they eliminate the need for the equipment and materials used to develop film. They also require significantly less radiation than film which is something patients definitely care about. While that radiation exposure can be reduced even more through the use of collimators or specialized sensor holders, some sensors work with minimal radiation exposure on their own. Here’s a look at some of the digital x-ray sensors with low optimal radiation exposure requirements.
