They looked at over 5,000 infants. The numbers are impressive, as are the study's finding, IMO. No radical change of habits needed: women should be sure they're not pregnant before getting dental x-rays. No big deal--it's the percentage move to make.

My last dental x-ray was done using a digital scanner. I was told that the amount of radiation was much less than with the old film systems. The "effective film speed" of the digital system was better they said. (I didn't get actual numbers.) The x-ray was ready in just a couple of seconds, though.
