Modern dental X-rays use minimal radiation. We take all necessary precautions to minimize exposure, including using collimators and lead aprons. We'll only recommend X-rays when necessary for diagnosis and treatment planning.

Tooth sensitivity occurs when the dentin layer beneath your enamel becomes exposed. This can be caused by worn enamel, gum recession, cracked teeth, or certain dental procedures. We can diagnose the cause of your sensitivity and recommend solutions.

Temporary sensitivity after cleaning is fairly common, especially if you have gum disease or buildup. This usually subsides within a day or two. If it persists, let us know.
