Dental X-ray, also known as radiograph, is a significant tool for the dentist. The 3 most common categories of Dental X-rays are the Periapical X-ray, Bitewing X-ray, and Panoramic X-rays. Bitewing radiographs are used during regular dental check-ups and helpful in exposing dental cavities amid teeth. Periapical radiographs show the whole tooth, roots included, as well as the bone surrounding the tooth. These X-rays are helpful in diagnosing a dental abscess as well as any periodontal gum problem. The third type of x-ray frequently used in dentistry; the Panoramic radiograph provides an extensive overview of the entire oral cavity. Panoramic X-ray provides information about the upper and lower jawbone, teeth, sinuses, and all other soft and hard tissues of the head region and neck region.

Dental braces (also known as orthodontic braces) are a device used in orthodontics to correct alignment of teeth and their position with regard to bite. Braces are often used to correct malocclusions such as underbites, overbites, cross bites and open bites, or crooked teeth and various other flaws of teeth and jaws, whether cosmetic or structural. Orthodontic braces are often used in conjunction with other orthodontic appliances to widen the palate or jaws, create spaces between teeth, or otherwise shape the teeth and jaws.
