Have you wondered why the dentist takes x-rays?

Reasons we take x-rays:

1.  Examining areas prior to performing procedures.    
2. Looking for infections at the tip of the root.  
3. Checking for bone loss. 
4.  Inspecting for decay between teeth and under fillings. 
5. Reviewing changes during growth and in-between visits.
