Dental Health From the Inside Out

There’s more to a beautiful smile than clean teeth—hidden problems like cavities and bone loss can affect the way you eat and talk. Optimize your mouth’s health from the inside out with dental X-rays in Kennebunk.

At Generations Dentistry, we use dental X-rays to evaluate possible cavities, check the bone level around your teeth, and identify pathology we can’t see with the human eye. These radiographs also allow us to document your dental health over time, and they provide a visual way for you to understand and care for your teeth.

An Inside Look at X-Rays

    Scheduling

    We recommend different types of X-rays at various intervals for our patients, depending on their dental health needs. In general, you’ll undergo a preventative X-ray at least once a year during your regular dental exam.

    Taking X-Rays

    Your provider will give you a lead apron to wear over your upper body. After positioning your head in just the right spot, they will take the X-ray images, which only require a few minutes.

    Images and Analysis

    The dentist will review your X-rays to check for any signs that may need to be addressed regarding cavities, gum health, and pathology. If they find anything, your dentist will discuss it with you and review next steps before your appointment ends.

    What Dental X-Rays Detect

    While routine dental exams catch many potential problems, X-rays let us take a thorough look at the health of your teeth and gums. We can also check if a child’s permanent teeth are coming in well or see whether wisdom teeth need to be removed. Dental X-rays in Kennebunk help us catch and treat minor issues before they become major ones, such as:

    • Cavities

    • Impacted wisdom teeth

    • Cysts

    • Cancer

    • Facial fractures

      William G.

      I have been a patient of Trenalange Family Dentistry for several years. They have been very respectful of my low tolerance for dental pain. This visit was to restore the bite on four of my front lower teeth. There was no use of novocaine during this procedure. I experienced no pain and no nerve sensitivity. When I asked Dr. Trentalange why, he told me it was because of the laser technology they use and the reduction in trama to the teeth. Bravo! If you are looking for a practice that respects you and is using the best technology, look no further. I would recommend them anybody and I have.
