Digital Dental Radiography

Dental radiography allows us to interpret your pet's dental health well below the gumline.
A digital system allows us to capture our images more efficiently and utilizes the anesthetic time
needed to perform your companion's dental treatment.

Radiographs (x-rays) of the teeth are needed periodically in order to completely evaluate your pet’s oral health.
X-rays aid the veterinarian greatly in detecting abnormalities that cannot be detected under examination alone.
In some cases, x-rays can confirm the need for extraction of teeth that are loose or badly infected.
