Tooth imaging

Dental imaging is the process of obtaining an X-ray image that shows changes and damages to the tooth. 2D intraoral and panoramic radiography remains the backbone in resolving dental problems. Such an image is indispensable in dental diagnostics as it reveals changes to the teeth and bones that are invisible to the naked eye, and such defects are often advanced and causing discomfort. Therefore, this X-ray image is crucial for safe and quality planning and implementation of therapy. Timely dental imaging is very important both in adults and children, while pregnant women should avoid all types of X-ray radiation.

Dental imaging best reveals changes such as: tooth decay below existing fillings, bone loss, gum diseases, infections, changes in the bone or root canal, cysts and some types of tumors, as well as checking the growth of permanent teeth, spotting unerupted teeth, leftover roots, and the like. Also, these images assist in the preparation and creation of dentures, implants, and other procedures. This 2D image is the basis for diagnostics, planning, and control in dental medicine practices. Dental imaging in our clinic is performed simply, and the process is painless and fast. Whether you need intraoral imaging (which shows the tooth in its natural size) or panoramic, our state-of-the-art center has all the devices in one place. X-rays have been irreplaceable in diagnostics for years, and they belong to the group of electromagnetic waves. With the perfection of the device manufacturing technique, the amount of received radiation is harmless, so our patients have no reason to worry about this type of imaging. Before imaging, we protect patients with a protective apron to minimize the impact of radiation. At the same time, it is important to point out that the benefit of such imaging is great because it is crucial for the timely detection of problems, and thus the beginning of treatment. At the Dr. Bandić Clinic, we use the latest technology that provides exceptionally high-quality images. The image instantly appears on the computer monitor and can be further processed by software to improve the quality of the received image, and thus detect the smallest details.
