An apical x-ray is an accurate X-ray examination method used specifically to examine a single tooth and the surrounding bone structure. This technology can clearly show the root, surrounding bone, and nearby structures of the tooth, and is important for diagnosing problems such as cavities, periodontal disease, and periodontal apical inflammation. Apical x-rays play a key role in root canal treatment, implant evaluation, and planning other complex dental surgeries. This type of test has a low radiation dose, is safe and fast, and can provide dentists with the detailed information needed to develop an optimal treatment plan. By identifying potential problems early, root tip X-rays can help prevent more serious oral health problems, thereby saving patients time and money.
