Dental X-Rays

Dental X-rays provide us with a wealth of information related to the health of your teeth and gums. We utilize effective digital X-ray technology to obtain high-resolution images that give us a way to look for disease and abnormalities in the teeth and gums.

Facts about Dental X-Rays

We are all concerned about radiation and its adverse effects, but modern technology has allowed the dental field to come a long way in this regard. Today, our dental office uses up-to-date digital radiographic technology for intraoral radiographs and panoramic radiographs, which allow us to obtain more information with less radiation faster than traditional dental X-ray techniques.

Dr. Fienman uses the information on X-rays to look for the presence of normal growth and development and the absence of abnormalities such as:

• Cavities
• Gum disease
• Abscesses/infections
• Cysts
• Impacted teeth
• Fractured teeth
• Extra teeth that could be problematic
