Tests and diagnostics

When are dental X-rays taken?

 

Dentists are not clairvoyant, seeing what’s inside, under the gums and teeth. So X-rays can be called their eyes, looking deeper and helping them to carry out treatment properly.

Dental X-rays help assess:

  • the condition of the tooth;
  • the condition of the tissues surrounding the tooth;
  • the position of the mental teeth;
  • inflammation;
  • bone density;
  • sinus position;
  • the condition, number and length of root canals before endodontic procedures;
  • the effectiveness of endodontic treatment;
  • the general alignment of the teeth before orthodontic procedures;
  • the general condition of your teeth, bones and tissues before implants and other surgeries;
  • fractures, root fractures, intrusions in various trauma cases, etc.

When are dental X-rays taken?

Our clinic uses a SIRONA dental X-ray machine. It is used when it is necessary to determine and assess the condition of 1-3 teeth and their surrounding tissues during various procedures, for example, endodontic treatment, in case of uncertainties regarding caries. The new generation of digital machine is significantly different from the traditional one, as it reduces the patient’s exposure to radiation by several times. It is a safe, modern and effective diagnostic method that is indispensable in dentistry.

Why do I need a panoramic dental picture?

A panoramic photo is a general picture of the whole mouth. This X-ray not only shows the teeth and their position, but also the entire oral cavity, jaw joints and sinuses. Panoramic dental photography is used to assess the general condition of the teeth and their position, the situation of the jaw, the development of periodontal diseases, before prosthetic work, extraction, implants and orthodontic treatment.

The clinic “Dantų meistrai” uses a modern X-ray machine SIRONA (Germany). This examination provides the doctor with extremely detailed information about the patient’s condition, helps to make a correct diagnosis and significantly improves the effectiveness of treatment.

Are X-rays safe?

Modern equipment has improved considerably and can produce the same result with much less radiation than before. X-ray examinations now take less time and are more efficient.

All of the X-ray machines used in our clinic are state-of-the-art, modern, carefully maintained and comply with radiation safety requirements.
