With developing technology, people have also started to act more consciously in the field of health. This awareness also manifests itself in dental diseases. Parents now attach more importance to their children's dental health. While families do not neglect dentist visits for their children's dental health, during these visits it also becomes possible to detect interproximal decay, which is difficult to detect with the naked eye.
Radiographs and X-rays are important assistants of dentists for detecting interproximal decay and observing the condition of the dentition in general. Although the radiation dose to which patients are exposed during this procedure is in an acceptable amount, parents sometimes have expectations, especially for their children, for the diagnosis of decay located in the interproximal areas that cannot be detected with the naked eye, without taking an X-ray.
Some models of digital intraoral scanners have features that can detect interproximal decay. This feature helps detect interproximal decay without the need for an X-ray. However, it should not be forgotten that there are also situations in which an X-ray is mandatory.
Adana dental health center Dentrum also offers you such an opportunity. While you have many options such as clear aligner orthodontic treatment, smile design, and having your restorations made without the need for a traditional impression with intraoral scanning, please inform our dentists of your request in cases where an X-ray is not needed for the detection of interproximal decay in your children.
