FORT ATKINSON, WI – DENTAL TECHNOLOGY

Diagnosing Health Concerns


Tooth decay and cavities are difficult to detect even if they cause symptoms such as a pain in your mouth or tooth sensitivity. In some cases, tooth decay and cavities start from the inside of the tooth, where X-rays are the only way to form a proper diagnosis. In similar cases, a cavity that occurs on the surface of the tooth between two adjacent teeth can’t be seen without technological help. The best way to find and treat a cavity early on is with preventive dentistry such as dental X-rays.

Dr. Garrison uses bitewing X-Rays to diagnose decay between adjacent teeth and she uses a panoramic X-Ray (shown in photo), look for issues around the roots of teeth or pathology of the jaw and joint.

Are Digital and 3D
X-Rays Safe?


Thanks to advances in modern dentistry, the radiation exposure of modern dental X-rays has been reduced to a minimal amount, so that a common dental exam consisting of 4 bitewing X-rays produces less exposure to radiation than an ordinary day of natural background radiation (similar to that of a short 1-2 hour airplane ride). At Highland Dental, we make every effort to encourage the best level of health in our patients using only the best services and technology.
