Is a dental x-ray safe during pregnancy?
Q: When I was pregnant I had a dental x-ray for all my teeth. I did not know that dental x-rays should not be done during pregnancy. I didn't inform the dentist of my pregnancy and was in the 2nd month, is that okay? Also can a facial bleach be used in the 2nd month of pregnancy?
A:As a matter of abundant precaution, one should avoid all sorts of drugs, interventions etc. not because they may cause harm but because many side effects are still not fully known. Coming to your specific questions, there is no cause of worry.
