DENTAL X-RAYS

Dental X-rays are an essential diagnostic tool that allows the dentist to see beyond the surface, revealing problems that cannot be detected during a visual exam. They are critical for identifying issues like cavities, infections, and bone loss.

Why It’s Important/Benefits:

Detects cavities, infections, and bone loss that are not visible.
Monitors the development of teeth and jaw alignment, especially in children and orthodontic patients.
Helps plan treatments like fillings, root canals, or dental implants with precision.
Saves time and money by identifying problems early before they become severe.

THE STEPS TO YOUR BEAUTIFUL SMILE

How We Diagnose and Plan Treatment:

1. Assessment of Need: The dentist evaluates whether X-rays are necessary based on your symptoms, dental history, or routine check-ups.

2. X-Ray Imaging: Depending on the concern, bitewing, panoramic, or periapical X-rays may be taken.

3. Review and Diagnosis: The dentist reviews the images to pinpoint issues and develop a treatment plan.

What to Expect During Treatment:

The process is quick and painless. A small sensor or film is placed in your mouth, and you’ll be asked to bite down gently. The X-ray machine captures the images within seconds.

What to Expect After Treatment (Recovery/ Potential Risks or Symptoms):

Dental X-rays are safe, with minimal exposure to radiation. Modern digital X-rays use significantly less radiation than traditional methods. No recovery time is needed, and the dentist will discuss the results with you immediately.
