Pediatric dentistry relies heavily on dental radiographs, also known as dental X-rays.\u00a0 Dental radiographs allow the dentist to diagnose and treat problems such as childhood cavities, tooth decay, orthodontic misalignment, bone injuries, and bone diseases at an early stage.\u00a0 Clinical examinations would not be able to reveal these issues to the naked eye (in some cases).<\/span><\/p>

Dental radiographs are approved for diagnostic purposes by the AAPD. In spite of the fact that radiographs emit only small amounts of radiation and are safe to use on an occasional basis, the AAPD guidelines aim to protect young people from unnecessary exposure to X-rays.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
