X-rays? I don’t need any stinkin’ x-rays!

That’s not exactly true. While there are many things our staff can tell about your teeth just by looking, x-rays give us the opportunity to look beyond the obvious. They can detect cavities between the teeth and underneath old fillings. X-rays help us check your bone level and aid in the diagnosis of gum disease. They also show us abscesses, root infections, cysts, and even tumors that may be hiding under your teeth and gums.
