Dental x-ray and pregnancy

Posted by bbvv (298 days ago)

Just found out that I'm pregnant a few days ago and before I tested I had 5 x-rays on my teeth. They did cover my front with a protective apron. Will this affect my foetus?

Probably not. I also had dental x-rays while pregnant.
I also had an ankle x-ray once I knew I was pregnant and it was no problem. They covered me well (I also had to sign a release.)
