The Importance of Dental X-Rays
Dental X-rays play a pivotal role in:
- Uncovering dental issues that are not visible during a standard examination.
- Identifying decay located between teeth, beneath fillings, or within the jawbone.
- Assisting in the planning for dental implants, braces, extractions, and other procedures.

- Bitewing X-rays: Essential for detecting decay between the back teeth.
- Panoramic X-rays: Provide a comprehensive view of the jaw and teeth, crucial for planning orthodontic treatments or wisdom tooth extractions.
