Frequently
Asked
Questions

We know you may have questions about dental x-rays—how they work, what they reveal, and why they're important. Here are answers to some of the most common questions we receive from patients.
Are dental x-rays safe?

Yes. Dental x-rays use very low levels of radiation and are considered safe for both adults and children. We follow strict safety protocols and use protective equipment to minimise exposure.

Why do I need a dental x-ray?

Dental x-rays help us detect issues not visible during a standard examination, such as decay between teeth, infections, bone loss, or impacted teeth. They’re vital for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning.

How often should I get dental x-rays?

This depends on your oral health, age, and individual risk factors. Some patients may need them annually, while others require them less often. Your dentist will advise what’s right for you.

Do x-rays hurt?

No. Dental x-rays are non-invasive and painless. You might feel slight pressure from the sensor or film in your mouth, but it’s brief and mild.

What’s the difference between a tooth x-ray and a full mouth x-ray?

A tooth x-ray focuses on a specific area or individual tooth, while a full mouth x-ray (also called a panoramic x-ray) captures the entire jaw, teeth, and surrounding structures in one image.

The Process

Pre-Treatment

Before your dental x-ray, we’ll review your medical history and explain the procedure. You’ll be asked to remove glasses, jewellery, or any metal objects near your head and neck.

Treatment

During the x-ray, a small sensor or film is placed in your mouth, and the machine is positioned accordingly. The process is quick, usually just a few seconds per image, and we guide you throughout to ensure comfort and accuracy.

Post-Treatment

There’s no recovery time after a dental x-ray. Your dentist will review the images with you, explain any findings, and discuss the next steps if treatment is needed.

Sides Effects & Risks

Dental x-rays involve minimal radiation exposure. While they are very safe, we only take them when clinically necessary and always use protective measures—especially for children and pregnant patients.

Don’t Leave Your Oral Health to Chance

Without clear imaging, dental problems can go undetected—leading to pain, infection, or more costly treatments later on. Accurate dental x-rays allow us to act early and effectively.
