Dental Radiology Tauranga
Professional Dental Radiology Across Tauranga’s Three Convenient ER Dental Clinics
Advanced Dental Imaging & Diagnostic Technology at ER Dental
Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of excellent dental care. At ER Dental, we use modern dental imaging technology to help identify problems early, improve treatment planning, and provide patients with a clear understanding of their oral health.
Our dental radiology services allow our dentists to see beyond what is visible during a routine examination. From detecting hidden decay and infections to planning complex treatments such as dental implants and root canals, advanced imaging helps us deliver safer, more predictable care.
With digital technology available across our Tauranga clinics, patients benefit from faster results, improved comfort, and highly detailed diagnostic information.

Why Dental Imaging Is Important
Many dental issues develop beneath the surface where they cannot be seen during a visual examination alone.
Dental radiology helps identify:
✓ Tooth decay between teeth
✓ Bone loss
✓ Gum disease progression
✓ Dental infections
✓ Impacted wisdom teeth
✓ Root canal complications
✓ Jaw abnormalities
✓ Dental implant planning requirements
✓ Hidden fractures
✓ Oral pathology
Early diagnosis often means simpler treatment, lower costs, and better long-term outcomes.

Digital Dental X-Rays
Digital X-rays provide detailed images of teeth, roots, and surrounding bone structures.
Benefits include:
✓ Fast image capture
✓ Lower radiation exposure
✓ Enhanced image quality
✓ Immediate results
✓ Improved diagnosis
Digital X-rays are commonly used during routine examinations and treatment planning.
3D Dental Scanning
3D imaging provides highly detailed views of teeth, jaws, nerves, and surrounding structures.
This technology is particularly valuable for:
- Dental implant planning
- Wisdom tooth assessment
- Orthodontic treatment
- Complex restorative procedures
- Surgical planning
3D scanning allows for greater accuracy and improved treatment outcomes.
Intraoral Camera Exam
An intraoral camera allows patients to see exactly what the dentist sees.
Using a small high-definition camera, we can display detailed images of teeth and gums on a screen during your appointment.
Benefits include:
✓ Improved patient understanding
✓ Better treatment communication
✓ Early problem detection
✓ Visual documentation
✓ Increased treatment confidence
