Why would I need a dental x-ray?
Dental x-rays play a crucial role in modern dentistry and early detection of dental problems. They enable us to identify cavities, assess the health of your tooth roots and surrounding bone, diagnose and monitor gum disease, and evaluate the presence of teeth that are missing or wisdom teeth.
Additionally, dental x-rays are essential for planning orthodontic treatment, dental implants, and other restorative procedures including crowns and dental bridges. By detecting issues early on, dental radiographs help prevent the progression of dental problems, ultimately saving you time, money, and discomfort.
