FAQs

What is an X-Ray Mandible?

X-Ray Mandible is a diagnostic imaging examination that uses low-dose X-ray radiation to evaluate the mandible (lower jawbone) and surrounding bony structures.

Why is this X-ray performed?

It is performed to evaluate jaw pain, facial trauma, suspected fractures, swelling, infections, TMJ disorders, bone lesions, and other abnormalities affecting the lower jaw.

Which structures are examined during the test?

The examination visualizes the body, ramus, angle, condyles, coronoid processes, symphysis of the mandible, and in some views, the temporomandibular joints (TMJs).
