You Probably DON'T NEED Dental X-rays…
By Regency Dental Group Includes video
This video explains how dental x-rays are essential for detecting hidden dental issues, but their frequency should be based on individual dental health needs, not just insurance coverage. For instance, bitewing x-rays are typically recommended every 12–24 months, though some insurance plans may cover them twice a year. While some individuals benefit from more frequent x-rays, others may only need them annually. Overall, always let your dental provider, not insurance policies, guide your x-ray schedule.
