It is very common for a dentist to x-ray your mouth in order to determine the state of his or her teeth. Still, how often should such a procedure take place and what problems can it solve?
- You could need to have more than one a year if you have a dental problem
- This will help determine if specific teeth (like wisdom teeth) need to be pulled.
- X-rays are also used if you will soon be receiving implants
