title: [Digital dental radiographic technique and its clinical application].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the digital dental radiographic technique and its clinical application.
  
  
  METHODS
  One hundred and five dental films were taken in 88 cases with the digora digital radiographic system and studied.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The digora system has more advantages than the conventional dental radiographic technique. The image plate was used instead of the films and shorten exposure time. It had high exposure tolerances and image processing functions.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This new imaging system applied in the clinics and research work can play an important role in improving the diagnostics.
