Dental X-Rays

X-rays are a valuable tool for diagnosis and prevention.  They provide a map of your tooth and root positions that determine your best method of dental care.  X-rays also reveal any abnormalities in your mouth, such as cancer, tooth decay, or an abscess.

Patients sometimes ask us if x-rays are safe.

How safe are dental x-rays?

Dental x-rays give off a very low level of radiation and are considered by professionals to be safe and necessary.  All people are exposed to natural radiation in the environment.  Your dental x-ray series at Montgomery Dentistry is the equivalent of a single day’s exposure to natural resources.

In addition, our dentists make every effort to limit a patient’s exposure to radiation from dental x-ray exams.  Such efforts include administering a lead apron during the exam and using high quality film that greatly reduces the x-ray exposure.

Our Patients Know We Care

“I first visited Montgomery Dentistry to get new crowns and was very pleased with the staff and the work. Everything was explained to me step-by-step, and I felt right at home. Each visit is an pleasurable experience, and not to mention I always get compliments on my smile.”
