Dental X-Rays And Your Child

Your dentist may require that your child undergo digital dental radiography at some point. This type of procedure is more commonly called an x-ray. X-rays are usually done when your child has had many cavities or your dentist suspects that the child's teeth may not be forming properly in the mouth. Parents are often concerned when they hear about an x-ray because they fear that their child will be exposed to harmful radiation.
