Dental x-rays allow Dr. Lena Khan to view the underlying structures of your teeth and gums, detecting issues such as decay, infections, impacted teeth, and bone loss. Using minimal amounts of radiation, x-rays are safe for patients of all ages. At Dental Studio of Melissa, our goal is to ensure a comfortable and safe experience during every x-ray for our patients in Melissa, TX.
A visual examination alone often cannot reveal everything happening beneath your gums and inside your teeth. Dental x-rays can detect:
For children, x-rays help monitor the growth and development of permanent teeth. Most patients are suitable candidates given the minimal radiation exposure, though we always review your medical history first.
During the procedure, a lead apron is placed over your midsection for protection. A small, comfortable device is positioned behind several teeth, and the x-ray machine captures the image. This is repeated for any additional x-rays needed. Our team reviews these images to formulate a personalized treatment plan, and we often recommend routine x-rays to stay ahead of any developing concerns.

If someone told me I'd have a 5-star experience at a dentist of all places, I'd call them a liar. Well, I just had two.

I needed dental work that I had put off for years because I was terrified of the dentist. I thought it was going to be so painful, but it wasn't.
