Pregnancy is a time full of joy, anticipation… and a lot of advice. Some of it helpful, some of it outdated, and some of it downright wrong. One common myth we hear? “You shouldn’t visit the dentist while you’re pregnant.”

Let’s face it—most people don’t get excited about dental X-rays. The lead apron, the strange bite tabs, the word “radiation”—it’s enough to make some patients worry: “Are these actually safe?”
