What Is Special About 'Digital' X-rays?

Dental X-rays are a proven diagnostic tool that helps dentists detect oral health issues, such as cavities, fractures, or gum disease. There are both intraoral X-rays which are those taken inside the mouth, and extraoral, which are taken outside the mouth. With X-rays, dentists can examine tooth structures that they aren’t able to see during a routine examination, such as the jawbone, nerves, gum tissue, sinuses, and teeth roots.
