Dental x-rays are crucial in dental care as they can detect hidden issues like bone loss, cavities, gum disease, and unemerged teeth.

They are considered safe and have minimal negative effects, but extra protection is available. Regular x-rays provide a baseline for dentists to monitor dental health, revealing decay, bone loss, gum disease, infection, abscesses, cysts, wisdom teeth, and tumors.

A question often asked by patients is "How much radiation is in a dental digital x-ray?"

The answer is that digital dental x-rays are one of the lowest radiation doses of exams performed. Medical studies have revealed that a digital X-ray produces 80-90 percent less radiation than a traditional X-ray. We've put together a radiation dosage chart infographic to illustrate just how little radiation there is compared to other sources.

A TMJ (temporomandibular joint) X-ray, also known as a TMJ radiograph, is a specialized dental X-ray that provides a detailed view of the temporomandibular joint. This joint connects the jawbone to the skull and is responsible for the movements of the jaw when speaking, chewing, and opening and closing the mouth.

TMJ X-rays are used to diagnose and evaluate the severity of TMJ disorders, which can cause pain, clicking, popping, and limited movement in the jaw. The X-ray images show the position and condition of the joint, including the shape and size of the joint's articular surfaces, the position of the condyle, and any signs of degeneration or damage to the joint.

The procedure involves the patient opening their mouth wide and positioning their head in a specific way to capture images of the joint. The images are typically taken in both the open and closed positions to assess the joint's movement and function.

ALL our DIGITAL DENTAL X-rays have TMJ capability.
