Our dentists and team are committed to providing you with the highest possible quality of care. As part of this commitment we use advanced imaging technologies, including digital X-Rays and 3D imaging, to more closely examine your teeth and supporting structures. This allows us to diagnose problems in the earliest stages of development and plan more effective treatments to restore your oral health and smile.
Digital X-rays and 3D imaging rely on small digital sensors to capture images of your teeth. This gives you an imaging process that is fast and comfortable as well as extremely safe. In fact, digital imaging reduces your radiation exposure during the X-ray process by up to 90%! The images are transmitted nearly instantaneously to a nearby monitor where they can be viewed to provide efficient and accurate diagnoses. Some of the problems which digital imaging may identify include:
- Tooth decay
- Developmental abnormalities
- Improper tooth root positioning
- Cysts and abscesses
- Fractures in teeth and fillings
- Tumors
- Bone loss
- Infection in the tooth nerves
- TMJ disorders
- Abnormal teeth
- Dental and facial trauma
This technology can then be used to plan and perform a wide range of treatments, including oral surgery, implant placement, TMJ treatment, orthodontic treatments, endodontic treatments and much more.
We invite you to call Jennings & Larson Family Dentistry to schedule your appointment and learn more about digital X-rays and 3D imaging in Bullhead City, Fort Mohave and Kingman, Arizona.
