Abstract
Radiographs can help in the diagnosis and treatment planning, but the exposure to ionizing radiation may elevate the risk of developing cancer in a person's lifetime. The objective of this review is to briefly summarize 1) radiation risk, especially cancer risks associated with diagnostic imaging, 2) linear, non-threshold (LNT) hypothesis, 3) the risks of radiation exposure to a fetus, and 4) the campaign of Image Gently. The individual risk of radiation-related cancer from any single medical imaging procedure is extremely small and it is not likely to be cancer risk at doses lower than 100 mGy, but patients may be harmed by avoiding diagnostic imaging due to fear of radiation hazard. Dentists need to understand the radiation doses delivered by various radiographic techniques and the acceptable exposure thresholds to effectively advise the patient and to reduce the unnecessary radiation.
