Why Dental X-Rays Are Essential

Dental x-rays are crucial diagnostic tools that reveal what cannot be seen during a visual examination. They allow our dentists to detect decay between teeth, assess bone levels, evaluate the position of wisdom teeth, identify cysts or tumors, and plan treatments with precision. By capturing detailed images of your teeth, roots, jawbone, and surrounding structures, x-rays provide vital information for comprehensive dental care.

At Ponce Dental Studio, we view x-rays as an integral part of your dental examination—the most important procedure within our practice. These diagnostic images, along with intraoral and extraoral photography, provide the comprehensive data we need to understand what’s happening in your mouth and how it relates to your overall health.

Types of Dental X-Rays We Offer

Panoramic X-Rays

Providing a broad view of your entire mouth in a single image, panoramic x-rays show all teeth, both jawbones, the temporomandibular joints (TMJs), and surrounding structures. This comprehensive view is invaluable for planning extractions, evaluating wisdom teeth, detecting cysts or tumors, and assessing growth and development patterns.

Cone Beam CT Scans (CBCT)

Our practice utilizes advanced Cone Beam CT technology to create detailed 3D images of your teeth, bone, nerve pathways, and soft tissues. This sophisticated imaging is especially important for evaluating jaw joint health, assessing bone quality for implant placement, and ensuring there are no abnormalities like cysts or bone cancers that require attention.

Harnessing the Power of Advanced Dental Imaging

At Ponce Dental Studio, we are proud to offer state-of-the-art dental imaging technology. Dental X-rays are a crucial component of comprehensive oral health care, providing essential information that we can’t see with the naked eye. We’ve taken this a step further by incorporating advanced technology like AI detection with Overjet, CT scans, digital intraoral scanners, and low dosage X-rays into our practice.

AI Detection with Overjet

Ponce Dental Studio is at the forefront of embracing technology for enhancing patient care. We’ve incorporated AI technology using Overjet to aid in the interpretation of dental X-rays. Overjet’s AI algorithms can help identify potential oral health issues, such as decay or gum disease, that might not be easily detectable otherwise. This cutting-edge technology helps us offer even more precise and effective dental care.

CT Scans

We use dental CT scans for more complex dental problems. This 3D imaging technology gives us a comprehensive view of your teeth, soft tissues, nerve pathways, and bone in a single scan, providing highly accurate data for diagnosis and treatment planning. This is particularly important in procedures such as dental implant placement, root canals, and diagnosing TMJ disorders.

Digital Intraoral Scanners

Our digital intraoral scanners create a detailed 3D model of your mouth. This technology eliminates the need for messy traditional impressions, enhancing patient comfort, and saving time. These accurate digital models are vital in designing restorations like crowns and veneers, orthodontic treatment planning, and more.

Low Dosage X-rays

Patient safety is of utmost importance to us. That’s why we use digital X-rays that emit significantly lower radiation compared to traditional X-ray methods, all while providing high-resolution images for accurate diagnoses. This technology ensures your X-ray exams are as safe as possible.

Our advanced dental imaging technologies allow us to detect and diagnose issues more accurately, plan treatments more effectively, and ensure a better fit and function of dental restorations. The result? More efficient appointments, safer procedures, and better dental health outcomes for our Atlanta, GA patients.
