Why Does Your Dentist Take X-Rays?

Dental x-rays are a important part of dental treatment because they can detect damage to the teeth and gums that are not visible during a routine visual exam. Some of the most common reason for x-rays are listed below:

Looking for decay between the teeth - sometimes decay is not visible to the naked eye.

Checking for bone loss associated with gum disease - Gum disease can cause bone loss and the x-ray can show how advanced it is.

Checking for decay under fillings - Sometime decay under the fillings can occur and the only way to detect this is by x-rays.

Looking for infection at the tip of the root - Infections can appear at the bottom of the teeth where the bone is, which x-rays are needed to confirm.

Examine before procedures - Dentist need a full view of the area they will be working on, whether it is braces, fillings and tooth extractions.

So next time you get upset about having another set of x-rays taken, remember this is for your own oral health! Would you rather take the x-rays and see potential problems or be blindsided?

I cannot tell you how many times each week I am asked this question. Part of the Affordable Healthcare Act (ACA) requires that insurance companies offer dental. However, the dental that is offered is only required to cover children and teens 19 year old or younger. Even so, that coverage is very limited. Remember at age 12-13 when your permanent teeth were a little crooked and you wanted braces? Well, if your child needs them now they will have to be deemed "Medically Necessary". Most major dental work is like that under this insurance plan. What if you are over 19? Well guess what, you are not required to be covered at all. The ACA marketplace does have "stand alone dental plans" or advise you to seek "independent dental insurance". At what cost though? Since the demand for it is up, it is no secret that premium prices will be inflated and coverage benefits will be the lowest they can possibly be. Dental insurance even before the ACA was outrageous and unpredictable. It limits you what can have done and charges you high monthly premiums. This is only getting worse since the implementation of the ACA. Now, it is a policy of mine that I do not use our blog site as a platform to try to sell you on our plan. However, dental plans such as ours is the key to getting dental coverage at an affordable rate. You can turn that high monthly premium into a low annual premium, get what you need/want to have done when you want it without the worry of whether or not it is going to be covered. You will not have to have any procedure deemed "medically necessary" or wait an outrageous amount of time for authorization. Does the ACA cover dental? Basically.. NO it does not. It will refer to you to some place that is set up to provide you with dental and will do so at an unfair and outrageous rate. Readers, know that you have options. Research, Research and Research is the key to getting the coverage you need at a rate you can afford. When you do that research, you will find that dental plans are the best option. Which is the reason that dental centers refer to people to dental plans. We have done some research for you, you can see comparison all types of dental coverage on our website's comparison page.

Dentists Are People Too!

As promised, this is my follow-up post about why the dentist dreads the patient. I feel it's the right thing to do, after all, out of fairness to the dentist. The following is a serious but humorous accounting of information I have gathered over the years...believe me, the dentists have horror stories too, they just don't complain as much...to us, that is! Here we go: 1. The number one complaint is: "No Shows". That's right, this is the flip side of us having to wait for an hour past our appointment time. When we don't show for an appointment, it costs them money in the form of what we call "chair time". Not that they don't welcome the break....I once witnessed a dentist who had some free time on his hands dancing up and down the hallway wearing reindeer antlers (made out of plastic gloves) and singing Christmas Carols. And he was very out of tune! 2. They hate it when they've done a treatment plan, recommended a root canal or filling and then the patient doesn't follow the professional advice and a year down the road, oh oh...it's abscessed, and the patient declares an emergency! Know what the dentist is thinking? Something like this: "Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part....." But of course he/she would never tell you that so the office receptionist graciously sets you an appointment and he/she quietly fixes your tooth because that is what he/she was trained for... (and yet we still dread the dentist!) 3. They dread being bitten, kicked and spit at...and I'm not talking about children! There are adults out there who literally cannot control themselves. I swear, someone should publish a book with some of the stories I've been told. It would be a #1 Bestseller. 4. Frivolous complaints to the dental board. My goodness...you would not believe some of the things that are brought up in front of the Board. Some years ago I was given a copy of a complaint filed by an elderly woman against her dentist because during her treatment she was cold and he didn't have a warm blanket in his office to offer her. True story! 5. The proverbial "dental jokester". Seriously, do you know how many times in his/her career a dentist hears the words "I hate the dentist", or, "that was expensive, am I helping to pay for your Mercedes?". Now, there are a few dentists out there with a sense of humor but....really? Well there it is...the other side of the coin. I n retrospect, the dentist really does get a bad rap. Trained to heal, just like a doctor, and dedicated to the patient, most of them anyway. I guess it's important to consider that Dentists are people too! Keep Smiling!
