Some dental concerns are difficult or impossible to see by looking in your mouth alone. Forest Hills Dental Centre uses digital dental X-rays in Langley to help assess teeth and supporting structures when imaging is needed for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment planning.

What Are Digital Dental X-Rays?

Dental X-rays create images of areas that are not fully visible during a clinical examination. Digital systems capture those images electronically, allowing your dental team to review them as part of your assessment.

Forest Hills Dental Centre provides digital imaging, digital X-rays, and panoramic X-rays. We use imaging when it adds useful information to your care.

Why Do Dentists Use Dental X-Rays?

A visual examination provides important information, but it has limits. X-rays can help your dentist assess areas between teeth, below visible surfaces, around roots, and within supporting structures.

Digital X-Rays Can Help Us:

  • See areas that are not fully visible during an exam
  • Assess teeth, roots, and supporting structures
  • Investigate pain or other symptoms
  • Monitor changes over time
  • Evaluate wisdom teeth and their position
  • Support diagnosis and treatment planning

The type of image required depends on the question your dentist is trying to answer. We consider X-rays alongside what we see clinically, your symptoms, and your dental history.

What Is a Panoramic Dental X-Ray?

A panoramic X-ray captures a broad view of the teeth and jaws in a single image. It can be useful when your dentist needs to understand the position and relationship of multiple teeth and surrounding structures.

Forest Hills Dental Centre offers panoramic imaging. Wisdom teeth assessment is one example of care where X-rays may be used to evaluate painful, impacted, or problematic wisdom teeth.

Are X-Rays Needed at Every Dental Visit?

No. The need for dental X-rays depends on your oral health, dental history, age, symptoms, previous images, and the treatment being considered.

Your dentist determines when new imaging is appropriate. We can explain why an X-ray is being recommended and what information we are looking for before it is taken.

Digital X-Rays and Preventive Care

Forest Hills Dental Centre places a strong emphasis on prevention and early assessment. Imaging can complement your regular dental examination by providing information about areas we cannot directly see.
