Dental radiology plays an essential role in diagnosing and treating a wide range of oral conditions. At Advanced Dentistry, we pride ourselves on our modern equipment and extensive experience in dental radiology.

Dental radiology allows us to see in detail the structure of the teeth and jawbones. The images produced by x-rays can reveal:

  • hidden cavities beneath the surface of the teeth
  • the level of bone loss associated with periodontitis
  • issues in the development of children's teeth
  • the position and condition of impacted teeth
  • infections at the root level of the tooth
  • fractures in teeth or bones
