Dental radiology
Dental radiology involves using X-ray images to examine the teeth, gums, and jawbone. These images help dentists detect issues not visible during a regular exam, such as cavities, infections, impacted teeth, and bone loss. The process uses very low doses of radiation and is safe for patients. Dental radiology is essential for accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring oral health over time. It provides a detailed view that supports effective dental care and helps maintain overall oral well-being.
