Tooth Colored Fillings

Our office is proud to offer digital X-rays, an excellent alternative to traditional X-rays. They produce 80% less radiation than traditional X-rays and are 5 times more precise and develop immediately.

X-Rays

X-rays will be taken as you need them when you come to the dental office. Usually, bitewing x-rays will be taken once per year during a cleaning appointment. Bitewings show us in between your teeth and help us detect cavities that we cannot visualize clinically. This early detection often can prevent you from needing more expensive dental work. Panoramic x-rays are an excellent method to see wisdom teeth (3rd molars). Panoramic x-rays also allow us to examine the bones of the jaw for various abnormalities. Other x-rays are taken on a case-dependent basis to aid in diagnosis and treatment planning.
