Digital X-rays are rapidly increasing market share and replacing analogue devices. When it comes to operating X-ray systems, digital technology provides considerable technological and operational benefits to dental practitioners. Thanks to digital technology, dentists may easily upload and edit X-ray images using imaging software. Dentists may now study improved X-ray images and make more exact diagnoses. Similarly, dentists can save more time between patients, which leads to higher patient turnover. Additionally, converting to digital technology minimizes the amount of radiation that patients are exposed to.
