Radiographs are a very important aspect of
dentistry. Dental radiographs allow any dental professional to view and
conditions that may be of concern to the professional. Radiographs allow
conditions that cannot be seen clinically to be identified and recognized.
Without a dental radiograph you are not seeing the full picture, and therefore
cannot see underlying tissue and bone
