Digital X-Rays
Digital X-Rays for Kids — Safe, Fast, and Incredibly Clear
At ABC Kids Dental Group, your child’s safety always comes first. That’s why we use advanced digital X-ray technology that offers up to 99% less radiation than traditional film X-rays—while delivering fast, high-quality images that help us detect issues before they cause pain or complications.
Whether you’re visiting us from Granada Hills, Pacoima, Sun Valley, San Fernando, Reseda, or surrounding areas like North Hills, Sylmar, Panorama City, or Van Nuys, you can rest easy knowing your child is receiving the safest, most modern diagnostic care available.
Why Digital X-Rays Are So Important?
X-rays allow us to see what the eyes can’t—making them a key part of your child’s comprehensive dental care.
With digital X-rays, we can quickly spot:
- 🔍 Early-stage cavities
- 🦷 Tooth alignment or spacing issues
- 🧠 Bone loss or infections
- 📊 Signs your child may need orthodontics or a pediatric root canal
These images allow us to build the most accurate, personalized treatment plans possible.
Benefits of Digital X-Rays
Parents love our digital system because it delivers:
- ✅ 90–99% less radiation exposure
- ✅ Instant results on screen—no waiting
- ✅ Clear, zoomable images for better understanding
- ✅ Safer, faster exams—especially for younger kids
- ✅ Secure digital storage for easy access by specialists or insurance
From Winnetka to Studio City, families trust our technology and gentle approach to diagnostics.
How We Take X-Rays for Kids?
We make every step comfortable and kid-friendly:
- 👩👧 Small, soft bite tabs for little mouths
- 🧸 Toddlers can sit on a parent’s lap
- 🛡️ Lead aprons protect both child and parent
- ⏱ Images are captured in just a few seconds
Our pediatric-trained team is caring, patient, and always explains what’s happening to reduce fear or anxiety.
What If My Child Is Scared or Uncooperative?
No problem—every child is different. If your little one is anxious or has special needs, we may:
- 👁️ Use a visual exam first
- 💤 Delay X-rays until sedation (if part of treatment)
- 😄 Offer nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”) or oral sedation to ease the process
We always adapt our care to suit your child’s comfort and emotional needs.
Can’t You Just Look at Their Teeth?
Great question! While our dentists are highly trained at spotting visible issues, digital X-rays are the only way to detect:
- Cavities between teeth
- Infections under the surface
- Impaction or root problems
- Developing teeth still beneath the gums
In short: X-rays reveal the full picture—and help us treat problems early, before they become painful or expensive.
