Are panoramic X-rays safe?
Dental X-rays use high-speed film, so the amount of radiation exposure is very low. A panoramic X-ray adds only about as much radiation as you would get in 10 days from natural sources such as sunlight, minerals in the soil, home appliances, and through the atmosphere from space. Panoramic X-rays are comfortable and safe. They give us vital information that we cannot get from any other source.
