Schedule an Appointment

For orthodontic treatment planning and airway disorder diagnosis

Advanced dental imaging allows orthodontists to visualize important areas in your mouth, bone structure, and skull to determine treatment planning. A Los Angeles Cephalometric X-Ray examination could be an imperative radiograph to have so that dentists and patients get the appropriate care for their teeth. The x-ray exposure is rather quick, taking less than 10 seconds to scan your head with the actual x-ray taking 5 minutes to develop.

The Los Angeles Cephalometric X-Ray is used to predict how your bone structure and jaw would be affected by orthodontic treatment. Essentially, this radiograph is used mostly for treatment planning so that dentists can navigate through your mouth and have an idea of the response of your bone and jaw anatomy from treatment Thus, it is important that you find an advanced dental imaging center that specializes in Los Angeles Cephalometric X-Ray radiographs for your own health.
