X-ray diagnostic
Digital X-ray equipment produced by "Planmeca" (Finland) is at your service in the "GOTSKO dental clinic."
Periaprical X-rays, or radiovisiography, allow doctor to see the state of every tooth and his chums, and also control quality of the work during channels treatment.
Proper X-ray diagnostic – key to high quality and perfect result of treatment.
Undoubted advantages of Prostyle Intra dental X-ray equipment are:
- maximal diagnostic accuracy of radiographic examinations: a very accurate X-rays anatomically undistorted by shapes and sizes;
- radiation safety of patients: dose of irradiation is reduced to 90% in comparison with traditional methods of tape X-ray diagnostic.
None of self-respecting dental clinic does not even begin to plan treatment (not to mention
about treatment) without qualitative diagnostic. Nowadays X-ray examination of teeth-jaw system has the first place among the methods of dental diagnostic.
In our clinic, X-ray diagnostic is made only by modern digital (computer) equipment of "Planmeca" (Finland) production. This allows us to receive radiographs of high-quality, and the most important of it is reducing radiation exposure during the research. Due to what it is happening? The point is, that in this case instead of tape diagnostic, digital touch-control (sensor) is used, that is more sensitive than modest tape, that’s why X–raying of tooth or arch by means of touch-control takes less time of radiation(display). And what is more, got image instantly appears on the monitor of computer, there is no need to wait when your picture will be ready.
And one more important thing - a picture is always kept in a computer database and added to your personal electronic card.Usual tape X-ray film can be "somewhere forgotten, lost or spoiled accidentally," and information is lost. Images are printed or dates are transferred to digital media (CD).
And now something about X-ray diagnostic methods in our clinic. What was mentioned before – we make X-ray examination by modest equipment and it means minimal dose of irradiation and images of high quality.
OPTH - orthopantomography - this method will provide a snapshot with single –step image of whole teeth-jaw system as a functional complex. Due to this method we can diagnose of different of teeth-jaw system : detection of caries at the contact surfaces of crown sections and cervical teeth part, detection of caries at the chewing surfaces of the crown tooth under the filling, localization of destructive processes is determined, analysis of the number and nature of roots bending.
And obligatory in diseases diagnostic and teeth treatment are so-called « periapical » images (Digital intraoral x-ray). Proper name of this method is intraoral teeth X-ray. These images are taken to determine the state of bone tissue at the root apex (top) and to control the location of endodontic instruments in root canals, and also quality control of filling it, in the process of treatment. Moreover, intraoral radiographs show the state of a tooth part with a crown: a presence of carious cavity on the pin surfaces and cervical sections of teeth, and also at the tooth part preparing to restoration (by fillings and porcelain fused metal constructions), presence of hard dental raid (“dental pebbles”), quality of restoration fitting.
Taking into account complication of diagnostic and variety of the teeth-jaw system pathology, presence of the hidden and atypical forms of diseases, realization of exact manipulations during stomatological interference and high meaningfulness of control and treatment quality, using the most modern and highly informative diagnostic equipment is obvious.
Which radiographs are necessary and why?
Bitewing X-rays are recommended once a year or one and a half of the year. They allow us to diagnose the interdental caries. Full X-ray of teeth-jaw system (orthopantomography) should be done every 3-5 years. This X-ray diagnostic, shows teeth-jaw system completely. It can find any abnormality or disease of hard tissue (teeth and jaws). It allows doctor to monitor the dynamics of bone level (important for the diagnosis of periodontal disease), presence of inflammation at the teeth roots that can not be detected by simple examination.
Modern diagnostic equipment and highly skilled specialists of "Gotsko dental clinic" – guarantee of rapid detection of disease causes and quick recovery!
