At Aesthetics & Essentials Dental Group, we embrace cutting-edge technology to ensure your dental experience is as comfortable and effective as possible. One such advancement we are proud to offer is digital X-rays, a modern approach to capturing detailed images of your teeth and jaw.
When Would I Need Digital X-rays?
Digital X-rays play a crucial role in diagnosing dental issues that may not be visible during a routine visual examination. Whether you are experiencing tooth pain, suspect decay or are due for a routine checkup, our dentist may recommend digital X-rays to obtain a comprehensive view of your oral health. These images enable us to detect problems such as cavities, gum disease, impacted teeth and even underlying bone loss, allowing for prompt and precise treatment.
What to Expect
When you come in for digital X-rays in Mountain View, California, our friendly dental team will ensure your comfort throughout the process. Unlike traditional X-rays that require film development, digital X-rays involve placing a sensor in your mouth to capture images, which are instantly transmitted to a computer screen. Not only is this method faster and more efficient, but it also significantly reduces your exposure to radiation compared to conventional X-rays.
During the procedure, you will be asked to bite down on the sensor while different angles are captured to provide a comprehensive view of your teeth and supporting structures. Our skilled dental professionals will guide you through each step, ensuring accurate positioning for clear and detailed images. Once the images are captured, Dr. [doctor-name] will review them with you, explaining any findings and discussing the best course of action for your dental health.
Come see us for your regular checkup where we will take your digital X-rays to ensure your smile is healthy. Call us at 650-623-0003 today to schedule your next appointment with Dr. Golgoun Habibi.
