Dental Cleanings & X-Rays

Dental X-rays – What They Reveal.

Finding Problems Early Saves Time, Money and Prevents Serious Health Problems

Dental radiographs (X-rays) are essential, preventative, diagnostic tools that provide valuable information not visible during a regular dental exam. Sunflower Dental Group use this information to safely and accurately detect hidden dental abnormalities and complete an accurate treatment plan. Without X-rays, problem areas may go undetected.
  • Abscesses or cysts
  • Bone loss
  • Cancerous and non-cancerous tumors
  • Decay between the teeth
  • Developmental abnormalities
  • Poor tooth and root positions
  • Problems inside a tooth or below the gum line
Detecting and treating dental problems at an early stage can save you time, money, unnecessary discomfort, and your teeth! Dental X-rays are typically performed annually, or more often if we are tracking the progress of a dental problem or treatment.

Sunflower Dental Group may perform an X-Ray If you’re a new patient. This is especially important if you don’t have any X-rays from your previous dentist.
