Clearer Diagnostics with Digital X-Rays
Digital X-rays are a modern, low-radiation imaging tool that helps us detect dental issues that may not be visible during a routine exam. At Crossroads Pediatric Dentistry, we use digital radiography to get a clear, detailed view of your child’s teeth, gums, and developing jaw.
This advanced technology allows us to identify cavities, monitor tooth development, and plan treatments with greater accuracy—all while using significantly less radiation than traditional X-rays.

Recommended for Routine and Specialized Dental Care
Digital X-rays are a valuable part of routine dental care, especially as your child grows and their smile changes. They are commonly recommended during checkups, when evaluating cavities, or before treatments like extractions or orthodontic planning.
Our team determines the frequency of X-rays based on your child’s age, dental history, and risk of tooth decay. We only recommend them when necessary, ensuring every scan has a clear purpose.

Benefits of Digital X-Rays for Pediatric Patients
Digital X-rays offer several important advantages. They expose children to much lower radiation levels compared to traditional film-based X-rays, making them a safer choice. The images are instantly available on-screen, which means quicker diagnostics and easier communication with parents.
These X-rays also produce sharper images, allowing us to spot issues early and treat them before they become more serious. Plus, there’s no film or chemical processing involved, making them faster and more environmentally friendly.

Frequently Asked Questions
We want you to feel comfortable, informed, and confident before your visit. Here are answers to some of the most common questions our patients ask.
Are digital x-rays safe for my child?
Yes, digital x-rays are extremely safe and use up to 90% less radiation than traditional x-ray methods. We always follow the ALARA principle, which stands for “As Low As Reasonably Achievable,” to minimize exposure while still obtaining the information needed to care for your child’s oral health.
How often does my child need x-rays?
The frequency depends on your child’s age, oral health, cavity risk, and developmental stage. Some children may need x-rays once a year, while others may need them more or less frequently. We make recommendations based on individual needs, always aiming to limit exposure while ensuring thorough care.
What is the process like for a digital x-ray?
The process is quick and comfortable. Your child will be asked to gently bite down on a small sensor, and the x-ray machine will take an image in just a few seconds. There is no discomfort involved, and the entire process is typically completed in just a few minutes.
Can I be with my child during the x-ray?
In most cases, yes. We understand that younger children may feel more secure with a parent nearby, and we will provide a protective lead apron if needed. Your comfort and your child’s sense of safety are always a priority for us.
How can I be sure my child really needs an x-ray?
We only recommend x-rays when they are necessary for diagnosing or monitoring your child’s dental health. If you ever have concerns, we’re happy to explain the reasons behind our recommendations and discuss any alternatives if appropriate.
