P27-XR.3 – Importance of X-Rays

Description

P27-XR.3 (PE-STP009) – Why X-Rays Are Necessary During Each Check-Up

The P27-XR.3 (PE-STP009) is a lower quadrant dental education model designed to demonstrate why X-rays are an important part of routine dental examinations.

The model features anatomically rooted dentition set in a pliable, soft silicone material, allowing the teeth to be manipulated apart to reveal caries hidden within the interproximal contact areas.

Demonstrates

• Interproximal caries located between the teeth
• Caries that cannot be easily identified through a visual examination alone
• The importance of using dental X-rays to identify conditions that may be hidden from view

Key Features

• Lower quadrant model
• Features anatomically rooted dentition
• Set in pliable, soft silicone material
• Teeth can be manipulated apart to reveal hidden interproximal caries
• Provides a clear visual explanation of why certain dental conditions may not be visible during a routine visual examination
• Excellent for patient education, dental hygiene education, and clinical instruction

The P27-XR.3 is an effective patient education tool for demonstrating how X-rays can help identify hidden interproximal caries that may otherwise be difficult or impossible to see during a standard clinical examination.
