Advanced Imaging Without the Wait
Digital X-rays are faster, clearer, and safer than traditional film-based methods. By using sensors instead of film, we get instant high-resolution images that can be enlarged, enhanced, and easily shared with you on-screen during your visit. This means quicker diagnosis, better treatment planning, and a more collaborative experience.
Digital imaging supports everything from routine exams to complex procedures such as:
- Cavity detection
- Root and bone structure evaluation
- Periodontal disease monitoring
- Implant and surgical planning
- Wisdom tooth and orthodontic assessments
Panoramic X-rays: Full View in One Scan
A panoramic X-ray captures a complete image of your entire mouth in one smooth motion. This includes all your teeth, both upper and lower jaws, surrounding bone, TMJs, and even sinus cavities.
We use panoramic X-rays for:
- Orthodontic evaluations
- Third molar (wisdom tooth) assessments
- Implant placement planning
- Detecting cysts, tumors, or jaw irregularities
It’s a quick, painless scan that provides a wide-angle view with a low dose of radiation—perfect for gaining a full picture of your oral health without discomfort.
Nomad X-rays: Portable Imaging for Greater Comfort
Nomad X-rays are handheld digital devices that give us the flexibility to take high-quality images chairside, especially useful in situations where mobility or patient positioning is limited.
These devices are:
- Ideal for children, patients with disabilities, or those with dental anxiety
- Designed to reduce movement and retakes, saving time and enhancing comfort
- Extremely safe, using built-in shielding and reduced exposure times
At Kaviani Modern Dentistry, Nomad X-ray units allow us to adapt to your needs without sacrificing diagnostic quality.

Are digital X-rays safe?
Yes. Digital imaging emits significantly less radiation than traditional X-rays and is safe for patients of all ages. We always use the lowest exposure necessary for accurate diagnostics.
How often do I need dental X-rays?
This depends on your oral health, age, risk factors, and dental history. For most patients, we recommend updated X-rays once a year, or more frequently if monitoring a specific issue.
Can I refuse an X-ray?
We respect every patient’s right to make informed decisions. However, we may not be able to diagnose or treat certain conditions without current images. We’ll explain why an X-ray is recommended and what alternatives exist, if any.
Do panoramic and Nomad X-rays replace other imaging?
They complement, not replace, other forms of imaging. Panoramic scans give a broad overview, while Nomad and intraoral X-rays offer detailed views of individual teeth or areas.
Is this included in a routine exam?
Often, yes. We’ll review your insurance coverage and treatment needs before taking any X-rays, and we offer in-house plans for patients without dental benefits.
