Dental X-Rays
Check The Health Of Your Teeth
You Might Need Dental X-Rays
Dental X-rays are among the services offered by Dr. Delafraz and her team to identify issues with your teeth, mouth, and jaw.
Uses For Dental X-Rays
Dental X-rays allow them to take a closer look at your teeth to find cavities and see how healthy the root of a tooth and the surrounding bone are. Dental X-rays can also help your dentist find impacted teeth and can be used to check the growth of the teeth and jaw.
Types Of X-Rays
You might need to have a set of X-rays taken for a few reasons.
Intraoral X-Rays
Intraoral X-rays are the most frequently used type by dentists, as they are essential for identifying issues related to the teeth and jaw. There are several varieties of intraoral X-rays, including bite-wing, periapical, and occlusal X-rays.
- A bite-wing X-ray shows the upper and lower teeth of one area from the crown to the supporting bone.
- A periapical X-ray shows the whole tooth
- Occlusal X-ray is bigger and allows the dentist to see the full tooth development and placement in the jaw.
