Safely Capturing Clearer Images with Digital X-Rays
April 25, 2012
If you’ve ever visited Dr. Canzoneri’s Arcadia dental office, you know how committed we are to treating patients with contemporary techniques and technology. That’s why we use digital X-rays instead of traditional radiography.
Why are we are committed to this technology? Because of the many benefits that come with it.
First and foremost, digital X-rays emit much less radiation than traditional X-rays do. That benefits everyone in the office, but especially you, the patient.
Second, digital X-rays use a simple digital sensor to capture images. Compare this with the clunky materials used to take X-rays the traditional way.
Third, digital X-rays don’t have to be developed. For us, that means not having to work with harmful chemicals. For you, that means less time waiting to see the results. Instead, we can simply display your results on a monitor, where you and Dr. Canzoneri can clearly look at them together. We can even make adjustments to the images, making them clearer to see, all so that you can be completely up to speed about the health of your smile.
We don’t want any of our patients to leave with unanswered questions on their mind. With digital X-ray technology, it’s now easier than ever to educate patients about how their smile is doing.
Want to know more about digital X-rays? Call Dr. Canzoneri’s Arcadia office today. We serve patients from Pasadena, Sierra Madre, Monrovia, and Los Angeles.
Support Your Heart Health by Making Your Oral Health a Priority
February 27, 2012
Valentine’s Day is behind us and February is almost gone, but it’s never too late to talk about the connection between oral health and heart health. As studies have shown, the connection between the two isn’t negligible. Even though their relationship isn’t entirely clear to doctors yet, one clearly exists. And in large part, that connection is believed to involve gum disease, and the bacteria and plaque that cause it.
When left untreated, gum disease can lead to the formation of pockets in the soft tissue around the base of teeth. These pockets then make it possible for bacteria and plaque to find a way inside the bloodstream and, from there, to other parts of the body. When bacteria reaches the heart, the danger is that it might aggravate your arterial walls, eventually causing protective plaque to build up, blocking blood flow in the process and eventually triggering a heart attack.
If you’d like to find out more about the connection between your oral health and your general wellbeing, please schedule an appointment with Dr. Canzoneri’s Arcadia dental office. Dr. Canzoneri serves patients from all across the Los Angeles area and would be happy to answer any questions you might have. Give us a call today.
