Magic Health Checks!

At Seedling Kids Dentistry, we utilize digital X-rays to provide the highest level of diagnostic accuracy while ensuring your child’s safety. Dr. Noyan Aynechi relies on this advanced technology to detect and diagnose dental issues early, allowing for prompt and effective treatment.

Advantages of Digital X-Rays

Reduced Radiation Exposure: One of the most significant benefits of digital X-rays is their ability to use significantly less radiation compared to traditional film X-rays. This reduction in radiation exposure is particularly important for children, making digital X-rays a safer option for pediatric dental care.

High-Quality Images: Digital X-rays produce detailed, high-resolution images that allow Dr. Aynechi to detect issues that might not be visible during a regular exam. These clear images can reveal hidden cavities, impacted teeth, and other problems that require attention.

Immediate Results: The images captured by digital X-rays are available instantly on the computer screen, allowing for quick diagnosis and treatment planning. This immediacy means that Dr. Aynechi can discuss findings and recommendations with you right away, reducing the need for follow-up appointments.

Environmentally Friendly: Digital X-rays eliminate the need for chemical processing, making them a more environmentally friendly option. This not only reduces waste but also minimizes the use of potentially harmful chemicals in the dental office.

When Are Digital X-Rays Needed?

Digital X-rays are typically taken during your child’s regular check-ups to monitor their oral health. They are especially useful for identifying cavities, assessing tooth development, and planning orthodontic treatments. Dr. Aynechi may recommend digital X-rays if your child is experiencing pain, has a history of dental problems, or is at high risk for certain conditions.

Types of Digital X-Rays

1. Bitewing X-Rays: These X-rays are used to detect cavities between the teeth and monitor the fit of dental restorations (such as crowns and fillings). They are usually taken every six months to a year.

2. Panoramic X-Rays: A panoramic X-ray captures a broad view of the entire mouth, including the teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures. This type of X-ray is particularly useful for assessing tooth development, planning orthodontic treatment, and detecting impacted teeth.

3. Periapical X-Rays: These X-rays provide a close-up view of one or two teeth, from the crown to the root. They are used to diagnose issues such as abscesses, cysts, and bone loss.
