Why do I need x-rays?

X-rays are a vital part of diagnosis and treatment in oral health.  They allow a dentist to view structures that are not visible to the naked eye because they are between teeth, under soft tissue, or within the bone.  Without x-rays, some conditions cannot be detected or diagnosed.

X-rays help to check for – Cavities, Periodontal Disease, Infections, abscesses, Cysts, Cancer and Tumors
