Dental X-rays
Dental X-rays are essential tools in dentistry for several reasons
Diagnosis
Dental X-rays help your dentist identify dental issues or diseases. Dental Radiographs are essential for identifying cavities, gum disease, infections, and abnormalities not visible through a regular exam.
Treatment Planning
Teeth X-rays aid in planning treatments like tooth extractions, dental implants, orthodontic procedures, and root canal x-ray and therapies. They provide valuable information about the positioning and health of teeth beneath the gum line.
Monitoring
Your dentist, Dr. M. Paula Fedler can monitor the progression of dental conditions over time by comparing X-rays taken during different appointments. This Dental imaging is particularly useful for assessing the effectiveness of ongoing treatments.
