What is a dental X-ray?
A dental X-ray is an important diagnostic tool. Dental X-rays are images take of your teeth, gums, and jaws that allow us to properly diagnose and detect certain
conditions. When we take a dental X-ray, we can see things that are normally hidden from view. Dr. Dennis Sacry, our expert dentist, may use dental X-rays to detect the
following dental flaws:
- Cavities
- Abscesses or cysts
- Bone loss or bone fractures
- Abnormal tooth growth
- Impacted teeth
- Bite irregularities
- TMJ disorders
Taking dental X-rays in Whitehall, Montana is quick, easy, and painless. We will take a full series of dental X-rays during your first appointment at our office as part of your permanent

Later on, our dental team may suggest that you have more dental X-rays taken during subsequent appointments to ensure your smile is functioning properly. If you are due for a visit to our office, or if
