When we talk about X-rays, one of the first things that come to mind is radiation exposure. Because of that concern, many parents are usually hesitant in letting their children undergo X-ray imaging. Unless parents are well-informed about the procedure and the need to do so, they will generally have doubts about it. In the medical field, x-rays are considered as important diagnostic equipment. The same is true in dentistry. Your pediatric dentist uses x-rays to further examine your child’s teeth, look for any dental problem that may be present, and evaluate its extent.
