At Dental Co. of Knoxville, we kindly request that all new patients receive x-rays at our dental office. Although we accept records from previous dentists, we perform our own x-rays to ensure we have an accurate understanding of your oral health.
During a new patient appointment, Dr. Holt reviews your transferred records and previous patient history while performing his own examination and intake questions. We then take a series of x-rays, like panoramic, bitewings, and more.
Dental x-rays allow us to establish a basis for your oral health and create your patient chart, which includes the following:
- A written record of your oral health history
- X-rays and digital imaging
- Diagnostic records
- Treatment plans
- Home care instructions
- Consent forms
- Communication between you and the dentist
Ultimately, dental x-rays allow us to fully understand your long-term oral health and provide valuable insights that help create a personalized treatment plan. They also ensure we have accurate knowledge about previous and current dental health issues and procedures.
