Great Choice Using Film
- Thick digital sensors can’t reach deep into a smaller patient mouth
- Thick and inflexible digital sensors can even cause bruising when pushed deep into the mouth.
- Digital sensors require bags that can easily break exposing your patient to bacteria from a previous patient! See this study.
- Digital sensors have poor resolution compared to film.
PHP = 4-5 LP/mm. Wired 10-13 LP/mm. Film = 20 LP/mm. See this study. With digital’s lower resolution, small image details are missed. Or worse, small details can be magnified triggering a false diagnosis! Ask doctors using digital sensors, “Based on a digital X-Ray, how many times have you opened up a tooth only to find nothing? - Digital sensors are ridiculously expensive to replace!
