X-Rays
Radiographs, also called X-rays, are an extremely important tool in diagnosing your current dental health. We prefer to have an updated set of full mouth X-rays on all of our new patients. Recent, good-quality, duplicate bitewing or periapical films (6 months to one year old) can be used to assist with the treatment plan. University Family Dental will serve as a guide as to when new films are needed.
Treatment Plans
A dental treatment plan will be developed for every patient at University Family Dental from the most simple to the most complex. Our goal is to offer a wide range of oral health choices to meet your needs, while also demonstrating functional and cosmetic excellence.
