Oral-dental radiology
Radiology is a key component of dental medicine. It provides various options for viewing the inside and outside of your mouth (e.g. teeth and roots, bone mass, jaws).
Our services in oral-dental radiology
Radiologie Laënnec — Specialized in oral radiology
The Imagix - **Radiologie Laënnec ** clinic offer you the most innovative radiology techniques to meet your needs and those of your dentist.
Oral radiology can screen for lesions and anomalies not detected by your dentist in a clinical examination:
- Cavities between your teeth and under amalgams
- Degree of bone loss
- Presence of chronic infection
- Cysts, tumors and abscesses
Oral-dental radiology also captures three-dimensional (3D) images that are very useful for planning the positioning of dental implants, or to guide your dentist when performing a root canal.
