Why We Take X-Rays

Why We Take X-Rays


1) Look for Decay Between Teeth
     sometimes it is not visible to the naked eye

2) Check for Bone Loss
     an x-ray will show the degree of bone loss associated with bone       loss

3) Check for Decay Under Fillings
     an x-ray is the only way to see this type of decay

4) Look for Infection at the tip of the Root
     if you have an infection near the bone, an x-ray will confirm this

5) Examine the Area Before Procedures
     gives denstis a full view of teeth and bone
