At Pebble Pediatric Dentistry, your child’s comfort, safety, and smile come first. Led by a board-certified pediatric dentist and mommy, we specialize in gentle, personalized dental care designed just for kids. Our calming, child-centered environment helps young patients feel confident and cared for at every visit — because a great dental experience starts with trust, compassion, and a little bit of fun.
Our state-of-the-art digital dental X-rays provide clear, detailed images with significantly less radiation than traditional methods, ensuring your child’s safety and comfort. At Pebble Pediatric Dentistry, we use this advanced technology to detect issues early, guide precise treatment, and keep growing smiles healthy — all in a quick, gentle, and kid-friendly visit.
Digital dental x-rays are a safe, fast, and essential tool we use to see what’s happening beneath the surface of your child’s teeth and gums. These images allow us to detect cavities between teeth, check how adult teeth are developing, and spot any potential problems early — before they cause pain or damage.
At Pebble Pediatric Dentistry, we use advanced low-radiation digital x-ray technology that is specially designed for children. Digital x-rays require significantly less radiation than traditional film, and images appear instantly on screen, so we can explain everything in real time and involve you in the process. This helps us catch concerns early and provide the best care possible for your child.
X-rays are an important part of preventive care. We typically take them once a year (or more often if needed for specific concerns) and tailor the approach based on your child’s age, risk level, and development. Our x-ray equipment is safe, comfortable, and designed with kids in mind — even our youngest patients tolerate them well.
Most importantly, x-rays give us the full picture of your child’s oral health. With these detailed images, we can create a personalized plan to support healthy smiles at every stage.
If you have questions or think digital dental x-rays may be right for your child, our team is here to walk you through every step of the process.
Parents want to be sure that dental x-rays are safe for their child — and they are. Our digital x-rays use a fraction of the radiation of older film methods, and we take every safety precaution, including lead aprons and child-size sensors. These quick, painless images help us catch small issues before they become big problems.
Yes — they use up to 80–90% less radiation than traditional film x-rays, making them safe for routine use in pediatric patients.
X-rays help us detect early signs of decay, monitor tooth development, and identify hidden issues that can’t be seen during a visual exam.
Most children need bitewing x-rays once a year. However, we may recommend more frequent x-rays if your child has a higher risk of cavities or dental concerns.
X-rays help us spot cavities between teeth, infections, unerupted adult teeth, bone issues, or signs of injury not visible during a regular check-up.
Not at all. We use child-sized sensors and a fast, gentle process. Most kids handle it very well — even on their first visit.
