About the Service

X-ray Examinations
in the Dental Clinic

Our clinic has complete X-ray equipment for modern dentistry. We use several types of X-ray images that allow precise diagnostics and high-quality treatment.

Intraoral X-ray (IO X-ray)

An intraoral X-ray is a small device located directly in the clinic. It allows detailed images to be taken right in the dental chair.

Intraoral Image

Bitewing Image

This image shows in detail:

  • a specific tooth
  • its root
  • the area around the root

It has high diagnostic value and is used mainly for:

  • diagnosing tooth decay
  • monitoring inflammation
  • root canal treatment (endodontics)

Bitewing is one of the most important preventive X-ray images.

It allows:

  • checking interdental spaces
  • detecting early cavities
  • monitoring existing cavities
  • showing tartar between teeth

It is especially important during regular preventive check-ups.

Advanced Diagnostics

Large Panoramic X-ray & 3D CT

Panoramic X-ray (OPG)

OPG is a large overview image that shows the entire dentition and surrounding structures.

The image can show:

  • all teeth including wisdom teeth
  • tooth roots
  • bone and its condition
  • inflammations under the teeth
  • prínosové dutiny (napr. cysty)
  • čeľustný kĺb

It is recommended preventively approximately once every 3 years.

3D CT Examination (CBCT)

CBCT is a modern 3D X-ray examination that provides the most precise image of the teeth and jaw structures.

Benefits:

  • detailné trojrozmerné zobrazenie
  • ability to focus only on a specific area
  • nižšia radiačná záťaž vďaka cielenému snímaniu

Use:

  • plánovanie dentálnych implantátov
  • diagnosis of cysts and inflammations
  • komplikované ošetrenia koreňových kanálikov
  • detailed analysis of roots and bone

Safety and modern technologies: All of our X-ray devices are among the best on the market and meet the strictest standards for protecting patients and medical staff.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I have dental X-rays?
We recommend a panoramic image (OPG) at least every 3 years during a preventive check-up. The dentist may recommend bitewing images more often, depending on the condition of your teeth and your risk of cavities.
Are dental X-rays safe?
Yes. Modern digital X-rays produce a minimal amount of radiation, much less than a regular flight. Our devices meet the strictest European standards for patient protection.
When is CBCT (3D imaging) needed?
CBCT is used when planning implants, diagnosing cysts, treating complex root canal cases, and whenever the doctor needs an accurate 3D view of a specific area. We take the scan directly at the clinic while you wait.
Can I receive the images digitally?
Yes. We can burn X-ray images to a CD with viewing software or provide them digitally for another doctor.
