It is routine for your dentist to carry out x-rays, on occasion, during your dental check-up. X-rays allow your dentist to not only identify existing problems which might not be visable during a routine dental examination yet, but to be aware of any problems that may present in the future.
In adults x-rays can identify dental decay, impacted teeth, jawbone damage, cysts, tumours and abscesses. X-rays taken of children’s mouths will allow the dentist to see where the adult teeth will grow in.
Your dentist will decide which type of x-ray you need and will explain why you are receiving an x-ray and how the x-ray works. Your dentist or dental assistant will set the machine up and normally leave the room before taking the x-ray. This is to ensure your dentist doesn’t get to much exposure to the machine. Your dentist will only take x-rays when they believe it to be necessary.
When you have a dental examination appointment, your dentist will also be screening you for oral cancer. Early detection can boost your chance of survival from 50% to 90%. Your dentist will give you advice on risk factors for oral cancer and how to reduce them.
Your mouth is swarming with bacteria, mostly harmless, and the body’s natural defences as well as good oral health usually keep these under control. However, poor oral hygiene can cause bacteria to reach levels that might lead to oral infections, such as tooth decay and gum disease.
Clinical studies have now established a link between gum disease and heart disease. Gum disease has also been linked with conditions such as diabetes, lung diseases and even Alzheimer’s.
Yes, of course we will be more than happy to arrange this, just let us know when you book your appointment.
Dental anxiety can be very common but there are several methods you can use to help you overcome them. Discussing your fears with a dentist should be your first step but there are a number of psychological techniques you could use, as well as options for conscious sedation.
Avoiding the dentist because of fear can have serious implications for your dental health. Speaking to us about any fears or anxieties you have will help put your mind at rest before your check-up.
