Why are dental x-rays so important?

Monday, August 10th, 2009

X-rays are a very important part of your dental exam.  An x-ray is capable of revealing things that are not visible to the eye.

Such as…

  • Areas of decay between teeth
  • Infection in the bone
  • Abcesses

and other types of developmental abnormalities.

Allowing annual radiographs will save time and unnecessary discomfort.
