An x-ray is a form of energy that travels through solid objects. Energy is absorbed by dense objects, like teeth or bone, and show up in x-rays as light-colored areas. While less dense objects, such as gums and cheeks, appear darker on an x-ray. A patient with a broken leg would need an x-ray for the doctor to make a proper diagnosis to fix the break. This is much like what your dentist needs. In order for your dentist to have a complete picture of your dental status and to be able to make a proper diagnosis one or more x-rays may be taken. Radiation is not just something you get exposed to during an x-ray. Other sources of radiation are elevation, like flying in a plane or living above sea level. We are also exposed to radiation from consumer products like cell phones, fluorescent lamps, computers, and even ceramics and glass. The current federal occupational limit of exposure is 5,000 millirems ( or 5 rem). Bitewing x-rays show the detail of the upper and lower teeth in one area of the mouth. Each x-ray will show the tooth from the crown to just below the level of supporting bone. They are used mainly to detect decay between teeth, changes in the bone density caused by gum disease, and the proper fitting of a crown.
