Digital Imaging a Game Changer in Restorative Dentistry and Endodontics

Advances in dentistry has witnessed tremendous development in all its branches over the past years. With these advances, the need for more precession diagnostic tools, specially imaging techniques and machines have become mandatory. Right from the intra-oral periapical X-rays, advanced imaging techniques like computed tomography, cone beam computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound have also found place in today’s dentistry. Changing from old analogue to new digital radiography has not only made the process simpler and faster but also made image storage, manipulation (brightness/contrast, image cropping, etc.) and retrieval easier.
