Digital X-Rays

Digital X-Rays: Faster, Much Less Radiation, Easier to Use

All of this translates into better details and an improved patient experience.

We use the latest technologies to improve patient experience and outcomes.

Digital x-rays are an example of such tools.

X-rays are a common diagnostic tool in dental offices. They are extremely helpful for showing what’s happening in areas of the mouth that cannot otherwise be seen—between your teeth, the roots of your teeth, and the condition of your jawbone. Traditional x-ray technology relies on radiation, and it takes the time to develop the images. At Rockwall Oral Surgery, though, we take advantage of the use of digital x-rays.

Why Use Digital X-Rays?

Digital X-Rays offer additional benefits that improve our ability to help our patients.

Digital X-rays

Unlike traditional x-rays, which rely on radiation to generate images, digital x-rays rely on electronics. A sensor, which is hooked up to one of our computers, is placed in your mouth. With the simple click of a button, an image is captured. It then appears almost instantly on the computer monitor. We don’t even need to leave the room. We can read your image and discuss the results right there with you, and you can see exactly what we are talking about.

Less Radiation

One of the greatest advantages of digital x-rays is that they use significantly less radiation than traditional x-rays. Up to 95% less, to be exact. If radiation has kept you from getting traditional x-rays in the past, the use of digital x-rays can be a much better alternative.

Manipulation of Images

Traditional x-rays have us taking precious time from your appointment to develop images in a dark room. Thanks to the speed at which images are produced on a computer monitor, that lost time is now given back to you. We can spend more time with you discussing what we find on the x-rays and what treatment options will be the most beneficial. We can take the time needed to help you understand your diagnosis, and answer all of your questions.

More Time Devoted to You

With digital x-rays, we have the ability to manipulate images in a way we never could with traditional x-rays. We can zoom in and enhance images, which allow us to spot small trouble spots before they become something more serious. We can also display images in color or in negative.

Digital Files

Traditional x-rays get stored in a paper file, in among several other pieces of paper. It can get lost or ruined. Digital x-rays, however, can be stored in a digital file. When we need to access the image, all we have to do is click the link within your file. There is no need to dig through a regular folder. We can then display an older image right next to your new image, and make comparisons, making sure that your oral health is progressing.

Excellent Results and Strong Relationships

We walk with patients through every step of their oral surgery experience

Made Me Feel So Comfortable

"I had a Full Mouth Extraction w/PRF. Dr. Dombrowski and his team were fantastic.

The care he took in planning my procedure to make sure I was ready medically and would be ok, made me feel so comfortable and secure that I made the right choice in choosing him. He was upfront and honest about what was safe to do and what he was not comfortable doing. I greatly appreciate that.

Shelby, PJ, Madison, Stephanie and Jenn thank you all for being so kind and welcoming each visit. If you are needing work done, Rockwall Oral Surgery is definitely the place to call."

I Had The BEST Experience!

"I had the BEST experience at Rockwall Oral Surgery! Today, I had two baby teeth extracted, and since my adult impacted canine wouldn’t move, Dr. Pollock placed an implant at the same time as the extraction. I couldn’t be happier with the results!

From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm, professional, and reassuring. I opted for IV sedation, and I didn’t feel a thing—truly the easiest dental procedure I’ve ever had.

Dr. Pollock explained everything clearly, made me feel completely comfortable, and the whole team went above and beyond to make the process smooth.

If you’re looking for skilled oral surgeons who genuinely care about their patients, I can’t recommend Rockwall Oral Surgery enough!"

Cannot Thank Them Enough

"For most of my life, I have been scared of the dentist. If I am being honest, terrified would be a better description. A broken tooth that got worse over time ended up causing so much pain, I had no other choice but to find someone who could help. I called Rockwall Oral Surgery on a Monday and they knew what I was dealing with and were able to get me in that day.

I saw Dr. Dombrowski, who told me what work I needed (more than I thought) and assured me he would do the work and all would be okay. The procedure went just as he said it would, and between Dr. Dombrowski and his staff, they literally removed all of the fear of dental work that I have carried for most of my life. I cannot thank them enough. I highly recommend Rockwall Oral Surgery and Dr. Dombrowski."
