Oral Medicine & Radiology at Ivory Dental Payyanur
Accurate Diagnosis First

Oral Medicine & Radiology

Oral medicine and radiology is the diagnostic backbone of dental treatment — identifying decay, infections, cysts, impacted teeth and other conditions that aren't always visible to the naked eye, using digital X-rays and thorough clinical evaluation.

Getting the diagnosis right is what allows every other department at Ivory Dental to plan safe, effective treatment.

Digital X-rays use significantly less radiation than traditional film and produce instant, high-resolution images our dentists can review the same day. This allows early detection of problems like decay between teeth, bone loss or impacted teeth — often well before any symptoms appear.

  • Digital X-rays (IOPA, OPG)
  • Diagnosis of oral lesions
  • Pre-treatment imaging
  • Management of oral mucosal conditions

FAQ

Common Questions

Answers to what patients most often ask about oral medicine & radiology.

Are dental X-rays safe?

Yes — our digital X-ray systems use very low radiation doses and are considered safe for routine diagnostic use.

Do I need an X-ray for every visit?

No, X-rays are taken only when clinically necessary — for new symptoms, treatment planning, or periodic monitoring.

What happens if a mouth ulcer doesn't heal?

Persistent ulcers lasting more than two weeks should always be evaluated, as early diagnosis makes management much simpler.
