Are dental X-rays safe?

Yes, dental X-rays are safe. They use a very low level of radiation, and modern technology has made them even safer by minimizing exposure. We also take precautions such as using lead aprons and thyroid collars to protect your body. The benefits of dental X-rays, such as detecting issues early, far outweigh the minimal risk associated with the radiation.

Why are dental X-rays necessary?

Dental X-rays are an essential diagnostic tool that helps us identify problems that may not be visible during a regular dental exam. They can detect cavities, bone loss, infections, and other issues at an early stage, allowing for timely and effective treatment. Regular X-rays are important in maintaining your overall oral health and preventing more serious problems down the line.
