X-Rays
A proper diagnosis is the key to addressing any dental issues. At Incredible Smiles Woodville, we utilise diagnostic imaging that has minimal radiation and only recommend X-rays if we feel they are necessary. Generally, our patients have X-rays taken every 18-24 months.
Why Take Dental X-rays?
The high-quality digital images we take are seen straightaway in great detail, allowing our team a deep understanding of your level of oral health. Full mouth X-rays can also be taken with our OPG machine. Some of the situations in which dental X-rays are helpful include:
- Bone loss from gum disease
- Bone or root canal changes caused by infection
- Decay not visible to the eye
- The location and eruption of a child’s permanent teeth
- The positioning of wisdom teeth
- Tumour presence suspected
- Bone density assessment for having a dental implant placed
