Dental X-ray

by Gilbert Vet

There are many advantages of taking dental radiographs.

• Veterinarians can view problems below the gingiva (the gums) and inside the tooth documenting the pressence of lesions to support treatment decisions.
• They can evaluate an area where the teeth are not clinically apparent for root fragments,
• X-rays help to determine the cause of chronic nasal discharge
• They can evaluate tooth vitality
• After removing a tooth, veterinarians can confirm all root fragments were extracted
• They can also help to evaluate oral and facial swellings

Our Doctors and staff at Gilbert Veterinary Hospital have been trained and are very knowledgable in the use of digital dental radiography. Your pet's health is very important to us, and we continue to strive to provide the best care.
