Digital X-Ray
South Ogden, Utah 
For a safe experience in our office with minimal radiation and high-definition imaging, our periodontists, Dr. Scott Ferguson, Dr. Braden Atkins and Dr. Robert Ferrell, will use digital X-rays at our office in South Ogden, Utah.
What Are Digital X-Rays?
Digital X-rays are one of the advanced diagnostic tools we use to provide you with the best possible care. Broadly known as digital radiography, digital imaging has changed the way we take dental X-rays by making the process faster, more comfortable and more convenient than ever before.
What Are the Benefits of Digital X-Rays?
Digital X-rays use a digital sensor to take images of your teeth, unlike traditional X-rays that use film.
Digital X-rays use significantly less radiation than conventional film X-rays and require the use of no chemicals for developing the images.
Our periodontists can then instantly view the high-quality images on monitors right in the treatment room to provide you with efficient, accurate diagnoses and care.
