Get Safer Dental X-Rays

Monday, April 13th, 2009

A trip to the dentist means cleaner, healthier teeth, not a higher cancer risk – yet some x-ray machines emit more than 4 times the radiation now deemed safe, says a new study from the UCLA.

At A Perfect Smile, we have been using F-speed (instead of D-speed) film to keep our patients safe while we capture digital images to monitor your health. Our xray machines emit 90% less radiation than older technology!

Have a great day!
