Dental Radiology
Dental radiology is an important tool in diagnosing and treating oral and dental disease. Without dental
radiographs, dental problems (infections) can be missed. Dental Radiographs help aid in diagnosis, treatment
planning, monitoring treatment and post operative treatment success.
Dental radiographs are used to view the dental tissues and supporting structures for the teeth. They are also
used to identify problems with the crowns of the teeth, facial and jaw bones as well as the nasal cavity. They are
useful for evaluating the crown and roots of teeth as well as the supporting bone and soft tissue.
Dental radiography is a very important diagnostic tool used in our practice. It can help with identification the
following conditions:
Periodontal disease
Endodontic disease
Feline Odontoclastic Resorptive Lesions
Trauma, maxillary or mandibular fractures, fractured teeth
Dental abnormalities
Preoperative, perioperative and post operative evaluations
Nasal cavity disease
Missing teeth
Dentigerous Cysts
Oral Masses/Tumors
Retained Roots
Periapical abscesses
Genetic dental abnormalities
Cavities and Root Resorption
Abscessed teeth
Permanent tooth count in puppies
Retained Deciduous teeth
Non-vital (dead) tooth. Periodontal
probing with dental radiographs
provided the diagnosis.
