Diagnostic Imaging in Dentistry

Diagnostic imaging in dentistry involves using specialized tools like X-rays, CT scans, and digital imaging to create detailed pictures of your teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures. These images help dentists accurately identify issues such as cavities,** periodontal disease, impacted teeth, or jaw problems that might not be visible during a regular exam. By providing clear internal views, diagnostic imaging allows for precise diagnosis and treatment planning, leading to better dental health outcomes. It is a safe, advanced method that enhances the dentist’s ability to detect conditions early and develop effective treatment strategies.
