During a recent visit to the dentist for semi annual checkup, the hygienist / technician told me their office was moving from the traditional X-ray to a digital X-ray for taking the usual six month X-rays.
I hate the traditional x-ray because the film that has to be placed in the mouth is large and has a horrid taste. Why can't the X-ray film holder be coated with some sort of flavored coating to diminish that horrid taste?
Also, while I am going to read more about digital X-rays, one question I am hoping someone may know is this - the hygienist / technician said that even using digital X-rays there is still a device that has to be placed in the patient's mouth. What has to go in the mouth for a digital dental X-ray?
