Troy Warren of LetsTalkBusinessRadio.com discovered some new dental technology upon searching for a dentist in Gilbert, AZ that has a tremendous health benefit.
Warren said, “I have always been concerned about X-rays and the side effect of too much radiation.”
While Warren was searching he ran across the new dental technology in reviews patients had written and submitted, which could be very helpful to others concerned about radiation exposure.
One of them was in video here:

Quoting Sandra Preston in her review, "Our family has been with Dr. Sullivan and staff since he started. We are all treated like family with care and respect. Everyone in the office is friendly and personable. We receive the best in dental hygiene and complete dental care. We highly recommend Dr. Sullivan and his staff for all of your dental needs. They are very meticulous and believe your smile is your best asset. This review still stands. Outstanding staff and service. Dr. Sulllivan is very thorough and concerned with his patients' health, especially their dental health. And I love that he uses digital X-ray technology. I love visiting with the staff. Feels like family.”
When researching further Warren also found that in some dental offices, digitized X-rays (think digital camera) are replacing traditional radiographs. Although digital X-rays have been on the market for several years, they have recently become more popular with dentists.
Digital X-rays are faster and more efficient than traditional radiographs. First, an electronic sensor or phosphor plate (instead of film) is placed in the patient’s mouth to capture the image. The digital image is then relayed or scanned to a computer, where it is available for viewing. The procedure is much faster than processing conventional film.
With this technology the dentist can also store digital images on the computer and compare them with previous or future images to see how your dental health is being maintained.
And because the sensor and phosphor plates are more sensitive to X-rays than film is, the radiation dose is significantly reduced.
Warren commented, “If you are at all concerned about radiation exposure with dental X-rays ask your dentist if he/she is using this new digitized X-Ray technology."
