Precision imaging for better oral health
At Piedmont Pediatric Dentistry, we use state-of-the-art radiographs, or dental x-rays, to gain a clear and detailed view of your child’s oral health. Radiographs allow us to identify potential issues, monitor dental development, and create tailored treatment plans that ensure a healthy smile for years to come.
Our team is committed to providing gentle, thorough care, making the process quick and stress-free for kids of all ages. With advanced imaging technology and a focus on safety, we’re here to support your child’s dental health at every stage of growth.
How radiographs enhance dental care
Radiographs provide vital insights that cannot be seen during a visual exam alone. From identifying hidden cavities to tracking the alignment of incoming permanent teeth, these images are an essential part of preventive and proactive dental care.
Benefits of radiographs
- Detects cavities, bone issues, and other hidden concerns early
- Helps monitor the positioning of growing teeth and jaws
- Ensures precise and effective treatment planning
- Provides a safe, quick, and comfortable experience for kids
Radiographs FAQs
What are radiographs, and why are they important?
Radiographs, or dental x-rays, are images that show the internal structure of your child’s teeth, gums, and jaw. They help us catch issues like decay, infections, or misalignment that might not be visible during a regular checkup.
Are radiographs safe for children?
Yes! Modern radiographs use very low levels of radiation and are completely safe for children. We also take extra precautions, such as protective aprons, to ensure safety during the imaging process.
How often does my child need radiographs?
The frequency depends on your child’s age, dental history, and specific needs. In most cases, radiographs are recommended annually or as part of their routine exams.
Is the process uncomfortable for kids?
Not at all! Radiographs are quick and non-invasive, and our team takes care to make the experience as comfortable and reassuring as possible for your child.
