Overview

X-rays assist your dentist in identifying issues with your teeth and jaws. Adult X-rays reveal: deterioration, particularly between-teeth decay in tiny places. decay under the current fillings. loss of jawbone. changes brought on by infection in the root canal or the bone. Teeth's state and placement in relation to braces, dentures, dental implants, and other dental operations. Abscesses (an infection at the root of a tooth or between the gum and a tooth). some cancers and cysts. X-rays in children reveal: if degradation is taking place. if the mouth has enough room for all incoming teeth. should wisdom teeth be forming. teeth that have impacted (unable to emerge through the gums).

What are the different types of dental X-rays?

Dental X-rays come in two primary varieties: intraoral (when the X-ray film is placed within the mouth) and extraoral (the X-ray film is outside the mouth). The most typical kind of X-rays are intraoral ones. There are several intraoral X-ray kinds. Each displays various tooth features. An portion of the mouth's top and lower teeth may be seen in detail on bitewing X-rays. From the tooth's crown (the exposed surface) to the level of the underlying bone is seen in each bitewing. Bitewing X-rays can identify tooth decay between the teeth and changes in bone density brought on by gum disease. The appropriate fit of a crown, which is a cap that completely encircles a tooth, or other restorations can also be determined via bitewing X-rays (such as bridges). It can also show any wear or deterioration of tooth fillings. The whole tooth is visible on periapical X-rays, from the crown to the point beyond the root where the tooth is attached to the jaw. Every single tooth in one area of the upper or lower jaw is seen on each periapical X-ray. Periapical X-rays look for any unexpected alterations in the surrounding bone structures and the root. Occlusal X-rays monitor the growth and positioning of a whole dental arch in either the upper or lower jaw. X-rays taken outside the mouth are used to find dental issues in the jaw and skull. Extraoral X-rays can be of several forms. On a single X-ray, panoramic X-rays display the whole mouth region, including all the teeth in the upper and lower jaws. This X-ray can identify impacted teeth, locate completely and partially emerged teeth, and assist in the identification of tumours. Tomograms obscure other layers of the mouth while displaying a specific layer or "slice" of the mouth. This X-ray investigates features that are obscured by other neighbouring structures, making them challenging to see properly. A dye is injected into the salivary glands during a sialogram so that the glands may be seen on the X-ray film. Because they are soft tissue, salivary glands cannot be detected on an X-ray. Dentists may request this test to check for Sjogren's syndrome or issues with the salivary glands, such as blockages (a disorder with symptoms including dry mouth and dry eyes; this disorder can play a role in tooth decay). Dental computed tomography (CT) is an imaging technique that visualises internal structures in three dimensions (three dimensions). Cysts, tumours, and fractures can all be found with this form of imaging on the face's bony structures. An X-ray technique called cone beam CT produces 3-D pictures of dental structures, soft tissue, nerves, and bone. It analyses cysts and tumours in the mouth and face and aids in guiding the placement of dental implants. Additionally, it can detect issues with the jaws, tooth roots, and gums. In some aspects, cone beam CT is comparable to traditional dental CT. An imaging technique called MRI imaging provides a 3-D image of the oral cavity, including the jaw and teeth. (This is excellent for assessing soft tissue.)


About Treatment

Are dental X-rays safe?

A very little quantity of radiation is released by X-rays. The reduction in radiation exposure for patients is made possible by advancements in dentistry, including X-ray machines that confine the radiation beam to a small area, high-speed X-rays, the use of lead-lined, full-body aprons, and federal regulations that demand accuracy and safety checks for X-ray machines.
