What is Digital X-Ray?

Digital X-Rays are a modern technology that uses digital sensors instead of film to capture images of your teeth and gums. Unlike traditional X-Rays that utilize film, digital X-Rays employ electronic sensors to capture highly detailed images of your child's teeth, gums, and jawbone. These images are then instantly available on a computer screen, allowing our expert team at Super Smiles 4 Kids AZ to assess your child's oral health with unparalleled precision and efficiency.

Digital X-Ray vs Conventional X-Ray

You may be wondering how digital X-Rays differ from conventional X-Rays, and why you should choose the former over the latter. Here are some key differences and advantages of digital X-Rays over conventional X-Rays:

  • Radiation Exposure

    Conventional X-Rays use a film that needs to be exposed to a high amount of radiation to produce an image. This can pose a health risk for you and your child, especially if you need multiple X-Rays. Digital X-Rays, on the other hand, use digital sensors that require much less radiation to capture an image. This reduces the risk of radiation-related complications and diseases, such as cancer.

  • Image Quality

    Conventional X-Rays produce images that are often blurry, distorted, or unclear. This can make it hard for the dentist to diagnose and treat any dental problems or issues. Digital X-Rays produce images that are crisp, clear, and detailed. This allows the dentist to see every aspect of your child’s teeth and gums, and to detect any signs of decay, infection, or injury.

  • Image Storage and Sharing

    Conventional X-Rays produce images that are stored on film, which can take up a lot of space, deteriorate over time, or get lost or damaged. This can make it difficult to access, review, or share your child’s dental records. Digital X-Rays produce images that are stored on a computer, which can be easily accessed, reviewed, or shared with you or other dental professionals. This can help you keep track of your child’s dental history, and to coordinate with other dentists or specialists if needed.

  • Environmental Impact

    Conventional X-Rays use film that needs to be processed with chemicals, which can be harmful to the environment and the people who handle them. This can also generate a lot of waste and pollution. Digital X-Rays does not use any chemicals or film and do not generate any waste or pollution. This makes it more eco-friendly and sustainable.

  • Patient Experience

    Traditional X-Rays procedures may cause discomfort or anxiety for children, especially those who are sensitive to radiation exposure or unfamiliar with the process. Digital X-Rays systems on the other hand are designed for maximum patient comfort, with sensors that are smaller and more flexible than traditional film. Additionally, the reduced radiation dosage and quick imaging process contribute to a more pleasant and stress-free experience for children during their dental visits.

While both conventional X-Rays and digital X-Rays serve the purpose of capturing dental images, the advent of digital technology has revolutionized pediatric dentistry in terms of safety, efficiency, and diagnostic accuracy. At Super Smiles 4 Kids AZ, we're proud to offer digital X-Rays as part of our commitment to providing the highest standard of care for your child's oral health. Experience the difference between digital X-Rays at our practice today and discover the future of pediatric dental imaging.

Are There Any Risks of Digital X-Rays for Kids?

Digital X-Rays are very safe for kids, as they use much less radiation than conventional X-Rays. However, any exposure to radiation, no matter how small, may have some potential risks. According to the FDA, radiation exposure may slightly increase the risk of cancer later in life, especially for children who are more sensitive to radiation than adults. This risk is very low, and it depends on the type, number, and frequency of X-rays that your child receives. The benefits of getting an accurate diagnosis and treatment for your child’s dental problems usually outweigh the risks of radiation exposure.


To minimize the risks of digital X-rays for kids, we follow the ALARA principle, which means “As Low As Reasonably Achievable”. This means that we use the lowest radiation dose that produces a good-quality image, and we adjust the settings based on your child’s size and age. We also use protective equipment, such as lead aprons and thyroid collars, to shield your child’s body from unnecessary radiation. We only perform digital X-rays when they are medically necessary, and we keep a record of your child’s exposure history.



If you have any questions or concerns about the safety of digital X-rays for your child, please feel free to talk to us. We are happy to explain the procedure and the precautions that we take to ensure your child’s health and well-being.
