Questions for your Cheshire Dentist?
At Cheshire Dental Associates, we welcome your questions and are pleased to provide you with answers. We consider education to be an important part of every appointment because we've noticed that patients who are informed about their dental health are patients who practice better self-care and have better results.
We've collected some of the most common questions we get here for you to look through. If your question isn't answered here or if you'd like more information, don't hesitate to give us a call at (203) 272-2729 or email us using the convenient form on our Contact page.
Hygiene Program
Absolutely. Dental x-rays emit low rates of radiation, especially when compared to other types of medical
radiography. Additionally, at Cheshire Dental Associates, we take it a step further by using digital x-rays and digital photography to get the information we need. This further reduces the amount of radiation you are exposed to while allowing for excellent diagnostic capability. We also use lead aprons and other shielding techniques to make sure that you are exposed to the absolute minimum amount of radiation necessary.
We Provide Advanced Dental Technology
X-rays and other forms of digital imaging are our most valuable diagnostic tools. They allow us to see beneath your enamel and your gums so that we can identify developing problems in their absolute earliest stages. Here at Cheshire Dental Associates, we always want to practice the most conservative and least invasive dentistry possible, and digital imaging is an important tool that allows us to do just that. Our patients appreciate this philosophy as well because it means fewer procedures and dental expenses and more comfortable care.

Advances in x-ray technology have produced some marvelous features. For example, with digital imaging, we can zoom in on suspicious areas, highlight and color for better definition and education, and integrate your images directly into your patient record so that we can recall them in an instant at future visits. We're excited to offer this modern technology to our patients and thrilled at the advances in dental care that it offers.
