Kodak X-Rays

Dental radiographs, also known as x-rays, are used to examine the teeth, jaws and other areas of the mouth. An x-ray can be used to locate cavities, wisdom teeth and bone loss. Dentists can use the information that they gain from x-rays to better diagnose their patients.

Traditional x-ray machines use a special film that must be developed after the images are taken. New technology has produced a digital film that decreases the exposure to radiation by the patient. This digital film also can be processed quickly using a computer, making the images more convenient.

Kodak is a major manufacturer of dental imaging systems. Its Intraoral X-ray System comes equipped with both film and digital imaging options. The system is optimized for maximum resolution with a minimum radiation exposure. The combination of speed and safety make this model a good choice for dentists and oral surgeons.

The Intraoral X-ray System is mounted to an adjustable arm for convenience. It has four mounting positions and three arm lengths so that the user can adjust the system appropriately. Kodak provides software, film and accessories as well as online training in the use of their product.
