SAFE FOR EVERYONE
Regardless of whether you’re a child or an adult, you can have dental X-rays safely taken of the inside and outside of your mouth. The amount of radiation involved is extremely low, and is equivalent to the sort of exposure you’d receive on a 1-2 hour flight.
​
If you wonder why your dentist leaves the room while X-rays are taken? It is because they are taking lots of dental x-rays for their patients all day long, therefore leaving the room limits their ongoing exposure to radiation.
