Dental X-Rays at Cascadia Dental Studio Burnaby
Welcome to Cascadia Dental Studio Burnaby, where we utilize advanced dental technology, including digital X-rays, to provide comprehensive and precise dental care. Our team is committed to using the latest techniques and equipment to ensure the highest level of safety, accuracy, and comfort for our patients.
What are Dental X-rays?
Dental X-rays, also known as radiographs, are essential diagnostic tools that allow our dentists to visualize structures inside the mouth, including the teeth, gums, jawbone, and surrounding tissues. These images help us detect dental problems that may not be visible during a regular dental exam, such as cavities, infections, bone loss, and impacted teeth.
Benefits of Dental X-Rays
- Early Detection: Dental X-rays enable us to detect dental issues early, allowing for prompt treatment and preventing more serious problems from developing.
- Comprehensive Evaluation: X-rays provide detailed images that allow us to assess the health of your teeth and gums, identify any abnormalities, and develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs.
- Improved Treatment Planning: By accurately diagnosing dental conditions, we can plan and execute treatments more effectively, ensuring the best possible outcomes for our patients.
- Patient Education: X-ray images help us explain dental conditions to our patients, empowering them to make informed decisions about their oral health and treatment options.
Types of Dental X-Rays
At Cascadia Dental Studio Burnaby, we may use several types of dental X-rays, including:
- Bitewing X-rays: These X-rays capture images of the upper and lower teeth in a single view and are used to detect cavities between the teeth and assess the health of the jawbone.
- Periapical X-rays: These X-rays focus on one or two specific teeth, showing the entire tooth from the crown to the root and surrounding bone.
- Panoramic X-rays: This type of X-ray captures a wide view of the entire mouth, including the teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures. It is useful for evaluating impacted teeth, jaw disorders, and overall dental health.
- Safety and Comfort: At Cascadia Dental Studio Burnaby, your safety and comfort are our top priorities. Our digital X-ray technology minimizes radiation exposure by up to 90% compared to traditional film X-rays, ensuring your safety while still providing high-quality images for accurate diagnosis.
