It also meant using harsh chemicals to expose those images, not to mention having the extra physical space to keep them for future reference or for referrals.<\/p>\n<p>Taking x-rays with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dexis.com\/\">Dexis Digital Imaging<\/a>, on the other hand, is a completely different experience. With <strong>Dexis<\/strong>, there\u2019s no need for harsh chemicals, extra storage space, and it\u2019s safer for patients, too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How Do X-Rays with Dexis Work? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With <strong>Dexis<\/strong> <strong>Digital Imaging<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oaktondentistrybydesign.com\/about-us.html\">Dr. Khalil and Dr. Giordano<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oaktondentistrybydesign.com\/index.html\">Oakton Dentistry by Design<\/a> can easily take detailed images of a patient\u2019s smile with just one sensor, exposing him or her to 90% less radiation in the process. And, instead of having to develop those images with harsh chemicals, we can just bring them up chairside, on a screen that you and <strong>Dr. Khalil<\/strong> or <strong>Dr. Giordano<\/strong> can look at together.<\/p>\n<p>This doesn\u2019t just make it easier for patients to see their X-rays, though\u2014it makes it easier to explain what kind of care might be needed. That means more time can be spent helping patients understand their options, with less waiting time in our office. And for us, it means never needing harsh chemicals or extra storage space.<\/p>\n<p>Want to know more about <strong>Dexis Digital Imaging<\/strong>? <strong>Drs. Khalil<\/strong> and <strong>Giordano<\/strong> would be happy to explain how <strong>Dexis<\/strong> is making x-rays easier the next time you come in for your next checkup.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oaktondentistrybydesign.com\/contact-us.html\">Call us today<\/a> to schedule your next appointment with <strong>Oakton Dentistry by Design<\/strong>.
