Your Safety is Our Priority
We understand that patients have concerns about radiation. We use modern digital dental x ray technology that emits significantly less radiation than older, traditional X-ray machines. We adhere to all Canadian Dental Association X-ray guidelines to ensure your safety. For our patients asking, “is dental x ray harmful?”, we assure you that with our technology and careful protocols, the radiation dose is minimal.
Minimal Radiation Exposure
Digital x-rays use 90% less radiation than traditional film. The amount is comparable to background radiation you'd receive from a short airplane flight.
Safe During Pregnancy
With proper precautions including lead aprons and thyroid collars, dental x-rays are considered safe during pregnancy when medically necessary.
Lead Protection
We provide lead aprons and thyroid collars for all patients to minimize any radiation exposure to vital organs and developing tissues.
Safe for All Ages
From pediatric to geriatric patients, our x-ray protocols are tailored to each age group following Canadian Dental Association guidelines.
Our Safety Protocols
Pre-Screening Assessment
We review your medical history and current health status to determine the necessity and safety of x-ray imaging.
Protective Equipment
Lead aprons and thyroid collars are provided for all patients to shield vital organs from any scatter radiation.
Optimized Exposure Settings
Our equipment is calibrated to use the lowest possible radiation dose while maintaining diagnostic image quality.
Regular Equipment Maintenance
Our x-ray machines are regularly inspected and maintained to ensure optimal performance and safety standards.
Special Considerations
Pregnancy
We follow strict guidelines for pregnant patients, using additional protective measures and only taking x-rays when absolutely necessary for urgent treatment.
Children
Pediatric x-ray protocols use even lower radiation doses and are tailored specifically for children's developing tissues and smaller body size.
Frequent X-Rays
We maintain detailed records to track cumulative exposure and follow Canadian Dental Association guidelines for maximum x-rays per year.
Alternative Options
When appropriate, we discuss alternative diagnostic methods and ensure x-rays are only taken when the diagnostic benefits outweigh any minimal risks.
