Digital X-rays

Digital dental X-ray imaging provides state-of-the-art technology that’s faster, easier and safer than traditional X-rays. It improves patients’ experience, and creates high quality images of your teeth, gums, cavities, and oral structures.

Digital dental X-rays are used to check for the following:

• Dental decay
• Cavities
• Bone loss
• Gum disease
• Root canal problems

• Assess dental status before dental implants, braces, dentures, or other procedures
• Tooth infections
• Wisdom teeth
• Oral abnormalities

Dental Cleaning

Why is routine dental cleaning important?

General dental cleanings at least every 6 months are recommended by the American Dental Association, for children and adults. Teeth cleanings in the dental office consist of far more than just your normal brushing and flossing. Because plaque builds up and hardens into tartar over time, more advanced tools are needed to remove the unwanted buildup around your teeth. Dental cleanings also involve improving gum care, polishing of your teeth, flossing, and education about proper oral hygiene. Our teeth cleanings help proactively prevent oral problems like tooth decay and gum disease before they can occur.

Our dentist at Pathway Dental will inform you of how often to come in for a dental exam and cleaning, based on your oral health and any existing medical conditions. Schedule your dental exam and cleaning today.
