Radiological Examination

Radiological examinations in dentistry are used to diagnose and plan treatments for dental and jaw issues. Common imaging methods include periapical, panoramic, and bitewing X-rays, as well as CBCT scans. These provide detailed information about tooth roots, jawbones, and surrounding tissues, helping detect cavities, impacted teeth, and plan for treatments like implants or root canals. The procedures are quick, involve low radiation exposure, and are generally safe for most patients, including pregnant women with precautions.
