X-Rays
Linden Oaks Dental
At Linden Oaks Dental in Rochester, NY, we utilize state-of-the-art digital x-rays to provide accurate and detailed images of your teeth and jaw. X-rays are an essential diagnostic tool that helps our dentists assess your oral health more comprehensively.
Why X-Rays Are Important:
Digital x-rays play a crucial role in detecting dental issues that are not visible during a regular dental exam. They allow our dentists to identify cavities, bone loss, impacted teeth, and other abnormalities early on, before they become more serious problems. This early detection enables prompt treatment, preventing potential complications and preserving your oral health.
Benefits of Digital X-Rays:
- Precision: Digital x-rays provide high-resolution images that allow our dentists to see detailed structures of your teeth and surrounding tissues.
- Safety: Digital x-rays emit significantly less radiation compared to traditional x-rays, making them safer for patients.
- Efficiency: Images captured by digital x-rays are instantly available for review, reducing your time in the dental chair and allowing for quicker diagnosis and treatment planning.
Types of X-Rays We Offer:
- Bitewing X-Rays: Used to detect decay between teeth and assess the health of the bone supporting your teeth.
- Panoramic X-Rays: Provides a broad view of the entire mouth, useful for assessing wisdom teeth, jaw problems, and overall dental health.
- Cone-Beam CT (CBCT): Produces detailed 3D images of the teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures, beneficial for complex dental procedures like dental implants.
Digital Technology for Your Comfort:
Our commitment to your comfort and safety includes utilizing advanced digital technology for x-rays. This technology minimizes exposure to radiation while maximizing diagnostic accuracy, ensuring you receive the highest standard of care.
