Dental Imaging
To maintain healthy teeth, it’s essential to practice good dental hygiene. It's also important to visit a dental care provider at least two times a year, who will assess the current state of your oral health and provide input on how to take care of your teeth properly. During your initial visit to Dental Care at Ledge Rock, you can expect your oral exam to be accompanied by x-rays or other dental imaging techniques.
