Although there is a greater risk of using ionizing radiation in everyday practice, diagnostic techniques have overcome the risks. Dental care is dedicated to providing the best level of care to each of its patients while also utilizing technological and scientific breakthroughs to improve oral health. 

Traditional intraoral x-ray equipment is often mounted on the wall or floor, with the exposure button hidden behind a protective barrier to protect the operator from X-rays. However, there is an increase in the popularity of portable dental X-ray devices for intraoral radiography in general practice nowadays due to easy handling.
