X-rays

Dental X-rays are a vital part of diagnosing issues that can’t be seen with the naked eye. At Panmure Dentists, we use modern, low-radiation digital X-ray technology to spot cavities, check bone health, assess tooth development, and plan effective treatment. Quick, safe, and comfortable, our X-rays help us catch problems early—so we can keep your smile healthy.

What types of X-rays are available?

At Panmure Dentists, we use a range of advanced imaging tools to give us a detailed look at your teeth, gums, and jaw—helping us diagnose issues early and plan treatment with precision. Here’s a quick overview of the different types of X-rays we offer:

1. Standard X-Rays

These are the most common dental X-rays, used to check for cavities between the teeth, assess bone levels, and monitor the overall health of your mouth. They’re quick, low in radiation, and provide a clear view of individual teeth and surrounding structures.

2. Panoramic X-Rays (PANEX radiograph)

A Panex x-ray gives a full view of your entire mouth in one image—showing all your teeth, upper and lower jaws, sinuses, and jaw joints. It’s especially useful for assessing wisdom teeth, checking for jaw issues, and planning orthodontic or surgical treatments.

What to Expect

01.

Your dentist will first assess your oral health and determine whether an X-ray is needed to help diagnose or monitor a condition. We’ll explain the type of X-ray recommended and why it’s important for your care.

02.

We’ll position you comfortably and our team will guide you through the process and answer any questions to ensure you feel at ease. X-rays don’t hurt so there’s nothing to worry about.

03.

Using our modern equipment—whether it’s a standard X-ray, panoramic (Pan-X), or 3D scan with the Trios 5—we’ll capture detailed images of your teeth, gums, or jaw. The procedure is quick, safe, and pain-free.

04.

Your dentist will review the images with you, explain the results, and discuss the next steps for treatment if needed. This allows us to catch issues early and create a personalised care plan.
