Dental X-ray in Sri Petaling, KL

Dental X-rays

Pain in your teeth and jaw is usually a sign to see the dentist. But if a cavity isn’t obvious on the surface, your dentist will have to look deeper to find the root of the problem.

At E. L. Lim Dental Surgery, we believe a thorough examination is key to maintaining optimal oral health. That’s why dental x-rays are an essential part of our comprehensive checkup process. These safe and painless images allow us to diagnose potential problems and make sure your smile stays healthy.

What are Dental X-rays?

Dental x-rays, also known as dental radiographs, are low-dose radiation images that capture detailed pictures of your teeth, roots, jawbone, and surrounding tissues. Modern x-rays are digital, offering several advantages like reduced radiation exposure for the patient and clear image quality to help diagnose problems underneath the surface.

Types of Dental X-rays

Not everyone needs to get their wisdom teeth removed. Some will never surface and some may emerge without impacting other teeth if their mouth is big enough.

Bitewing X-rays

These capture the upper and lower teeth in a single image, focusing on the crown (visible portion) to detect cavities between teeth.

Periapical X-rays

These provide a detailed view of individual teeth, from the crown to the root and surrounding bone, helpful for examining root health and potential infections.

Panoramic X-rays

These offer a broad view of your entire mouth, including all teeth (including unerupted ones), jaw joints, and sinuses, useful for complex procedures or assessing jawbone health.

X-ray Methods We Offer

CBCT creates a 3D image of your mouth and jaw. Imagine a complete digital model you can virtually rotate and examine from any angle.

This provides a single, flat, panoramic X-ray image of your entire upper and lower jaw, including all your teeth (even unerupted ones).

Why Do I Need an X-ray?

Detecting Cavities

X-rays can reveal cavities, especially between teeth where traditional exams might miss them

Assessing Bone Health

X-rays help monitor bone loss associated with gum disease and can identify potential problems with jaw development

Evaluating Root Health

X-rays allow us to assess the health of your tooth roots and identify any infections or abnormalities

Planning Treatment

X-rays are crucial for planning dental procedures like root canals, crowns, or implants
