An X-ray of the Mandible (jaw) is a safe and painless test to visualise the structures of the jaw bone, the temporomadibular joint (TM joint) and the surrounding soft tissues like muscles using small amount of radiation. The image is recorded on a special X-ray film. The X-ray image is black and white.
