Everyday healthy smiles
Keeping Track of Your Oral Health
Dental X-rays are an affordable, easy, and fast way to help your dentist keep minor dental health problems from turning into bigger ones.
Benefits of Dental X-rays
Digital X-rays allow us to evaluate oral development, wisdom tooth positioning, impacted teeth, periodontal disease, tartar buildup, and small cavities that are still asymptomatic. As a result, our Carlsbad childrens dentist can provide early intervention care that’s minimally invasive and more proactive for your overall dental health. In turn, you get to enjoy fewer (and more affordable) treatments.
What are digital X-Rays and how do they benefit my child’s smile?
Digital X-rays provide clear and detailed images of your child’s teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures. These images allow our pediatric dentists to detect and diagnose a wide range of oral health and orthodontic issues that may not be visible during a visual examination alone. With this technology, we can identify tooth decay, cavities, impacted teeth, bone loss, infections, and even developmental abnormalities.
In addition to capturing images quickly, reducing time in the dental chair, and minimizing discomfort or anxiety your child may experience, digital X-rays also emit significantly less radiation than traditional film X-rays, making them a safe and reliable option for patients.
How often should my child have these X-rays performed?
Regular dental examinations, including digital X-rays, are essential for maintaining your child’s oral health. We recommend that children have their mouths examined every six months or as advised by our pediatric dentists to ensure that any potential issues can be detected and addressed promptly.

Hear From Our Patients
My brother has down syndrome and he is incredibly nervous at any doctor appointment. But he connects so beautifully with everyone there from the moment he walks in and we check in at the front desk. Im so grateful for Gaby’s patience and humor through his nerves. It makes all the difference in making his cleaning a fun experience. And Dr. Fazeli is so gracious, sweet and calming. I really feel like its a whole team experience. And my brother leaves happy every time. I couldn't be happier with this office.
Best Dentist and even take Dental - Cal. They are great with my daughter who is autistic and my son that had previous bad experiences with dentists and now feels totally comfortable going 😊
I’ve had such a wonderful experience bringing my children to Discovery Children’s Dentistry. The entire staff is incredibly kind, patient, and welcoming, which makes such a difference when bringing kids to the dentist. They go above and beyond to make my children feel comfortable and at ease during every visit. Dr. Fazeli is very kind, gentle, knowledgeable, and take the time to explain everything clearly. My kids actually look forward to their appointments, which says a lot! I’m so grateful to have found a pediatric dental office we can trust. Highly recommend to any parent looking for excellent dental care for their children.
I take my kids, ages 5 and 9, to Discovery and have had a great experience both with the cleanings as well as a cavity filling. They make my young kids feel comfortable from start to finish which is not always the case. The dentist is kind and thorough.
Dr. Fazeli and her staff were so great with my son who unfortunately had an appliance placed incorrectly causing him a great deal of discomfort. They fit him in promptly and were so gentle and made the removal so easy! I also really appreciated that she took the time to answer my questions after since our son is a more complicated case than most. The office also had a nice play area and a fun prize at the end which my son loved!
We love this dental office. The staff are all lovely and kind. It’s clean and well managed and our kids are always comfortable and love going.
Highly recommend bring your kids here. The office is so fun for the kids, staff is fantastic. The dentist is extremely kind and warm. My son’s first dentist apt was extremely fun for him and I’m going to be coming back from now on. Best decision I made. I wish I could see her as an adult client haha ❤️ my son wants to come back because of his experience was truly awesome and fun .
Clean office, nice and friendly staff, patient and kind dentist. Great office for those who has special needs kids.
From the front desk to the dental chair, every visit feels welcoming and professional. I truly appreciate the time you take to explain everything clearly and make each appointment comfortable. Extend my gratitude to everyone in the office - you make going to the dentist genuinely a positive experience. Warm regards Michael McIntosh
Dr. Afsoon Fazeli is kind and knowledgeable dentist. She was patient with all my questions and gave me a lot of helpful information. Her transparency helped me to understand my son’s oral situation so that I felt very informed moving forward with our next steps.
My kids love Dr. Fazeli and the team at Discovery Children’s! The team is so kind and my kids enjoy the atmosphere? They even asked me when they get to come back!
Wonderful staff and very trustworthy Dr. i would recommend this practice to anyone.
10/10 experience! Dr.Fazeli was great with my kids and she explained everything to me in a simple clear way!
Had a great experience at this dentist office. All of the staff were lovely. I’m really glad this will be my girls first memory of the dentist. The hygienists walked both girls through each step before doing it. They allowed me to sit on the chair and hold them for comfort. They were offered headphones to listen to the tv show playing from screens in the ceiling. My older daughter was given a coin at the end of each appointment where she could pick from many varieties of prize machines. My younger daughter was given an age appropriate toy that was safe for her. The waiting area has tablets and some toys and is bright, colorful, and welcoming. My older daughter needed a document signed to start school and that was done easily and quickly. Neither girl had any issues with their teeth while we were patients, but the dentist offered tips to keep it that way depending on each girls’ mouth. Highly recommended and wish we weren’t so far away to continue going.
Absolutely AMAZING experience at Discovery Children’s Dentistry and Orthodontics! From the moment we walked in, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and professional, making both parents and kids feel comfortable right away. Dr. Afsoon Faseli is truly wonderful—so caring, patient, and kind. She took the time to explain everything in a fun, kid-friendly way and made the entire visit stress-free and enjoyable. Our kids left with big smiles and were actually excited to come back (a total win!). We are so grateful to have found such an outstanding dental office and highly recommend Discovery Children’s Dentistry and Orthodontics to any family looking for exceptional kids’ dental care! 🌟🦷✨
