<p>Dental Imaging - advances in conventional and digital radiography<br>Lieutenant Gary D. Matt DC, USNR, and Captain Scott B. McClanahan DC, USN<br><br>Introduction<br>Digital dental radiography was introduced in 1987, and many thought this technology would quickly take over as the standard in dental radiology. However, this has not been the case as only 7% to 8% of dental professionals currently use digital imaging systems (1). Many dentists have been resistant to change as the diagnostic quality of digital radiography has been questionable when compared to conventional film. The purpose of this Clinical Update is to review the advances made in both conventional and digital dental imaging and discuss the future of this technology in military dentistry.
