Modern Imaging for Safer, Faster Diagnosis

At East Van Family Dental, we’re committed to using the latest technology to enhance your care. That’s why we offer digital X-rays—a faster, safer, and more comfortable alternative to traditional dental imaging. Whether you’re coming in for a routine checkup or investigating a specific concern, digital X-rays help us see what’s happening below the surface and make accurate, informed treatment decisions.

Why Digital X-Rays?

Unlike conventional film X-rays, digital X-rays use electronic sensors to capture detailed images of your teeth, bones, and surrounding structures. The images appear instantly on our computer screen, allowing us to zoom in, enhance contrast, and show you exactly what we see—so you can better understand your oral health.

• Cavities and decay between teeth
• Bone loss caused by gum disease
• Infections at the tooth root
• Impacted or unerupted teeth
• Jawbone abnormalities or damage
• Tooth development in children and teens

Safe and Comfortable

One of the biggest advantages of digital X-rays is the significantly lower radiation exposure—up to 90% less than traditional film X-rays. This makes them safer for all patients, including children and those who need frequent imaging. The process is also more comfortable. There’s no waiting for film to develop, no sharp or bulky sensors, and no messy chemicals. It’s quick, clean, and efficient.

Instant Results and Better Communication

With digital X-rays, we can show you the results right away during your visit. This not only speeds up diagnosis and treatment planning, but also allows you to see and understand what’s happening in your mouth. We believe in transparent, collaborative care, and digital imaging helps make that possible. We can also store and retrieve your X-rays easily, share them with specialists if needed, and track changes in your oral health over time with greater accuracy.

Eco-Friendly Dentistry

Digital imaging is also better for the environment. It eliminates the need for film processing, chemical waste, and physical storage, reducing our ecological footprint while improving the overall patient experience.
