Advanced Imaging for Complete Oral Health
Dental X-rays are a crucial part of preventive and restorative dentistry. At Greece Family Dentistry and Implantology, Dr. Max Yakimov uses the latest digital X-ray technology to provide a clear and accurate view of your teeth, gums, and jawbone. These images allow us to identify problems that may not be visible during a routine dental exam, ensuring early intervention and more effective treatment planning.
X-rays help maintain long-term oral health by detecting small issues before they develop into larger, more complex problems. With safe, low-radiation imaging, patients of all ages can benefit from early diagnosis and improved dental care.

Importance of Dental X-Rays
Dental X-rays reveal conditions that are often hidden during a standard visual exam. They are essential for:
- Detecting cavities in between teeth or under existing fillings
- Monitoring bone density and supporting structures for healthy gums and teeth
- Identifying infections or abscesses that could cause future complications
- Evaluating tooth development for children, teens, and adults
- Planning dental procedures like implants, crowns, or root canals
By using X-rays, our team can prevent minor issues from turning into major dental problems, saving time, discomfort, and cost.
Frequency and Monitoring
How often dental X-rays are needed depends on individual oral health and risk factors. We consider your:
- Age and developmental stage
- Medical and dental history
- Risk for cavities or gum disease
- Current or planned dental treatments
Typical recommendations include:
- New patients: A full-mouth series every 3–5 years
- Regular checkups: Bitewing X-rays once or twice a year to monitor new or recurring issues
- High-risk patients: More frequent imaging may be advised for gum disease, implants, or ongoing treatment
Regular monitoring with X-rays ensures that dental issues are caught early and treated effectively, preventing more serious complications later.
Safety of Dental X-Rays
Modern dental X-rays are safe and use very low radiation levels. At Greece Family Dentistry and Implantology, we take every precaution to minimize exposure:
- Use of protective measures
- Digital imaging technology for faster and more precise results
- Tailored imaging based on your oral health needs
These measures ensure accurate diagnostics without unnecessary radiation, making X-rays safe for patients of all ages.
