You know that you should bring your family to the dentist for regular visits. This gives dental professionals an opportunity to examine their teeth and gums, to remove plaque and tartar buildup, and to take X-rays.

You may be wondering why X-rays are so important to a family dentist office like Total Dental Care of South Carolina. X-rays help us see things we often can’t see with our eyes alone. X-rays can reveal cavities as they are starting to form and other problems. This short video by the American Dental Association gives you more details.
