While routine dental X-rays have a low level of radiation, it's generally recommended to avoid them during pregnancy, especially during the first trimester when the fetus is developing rapidly. If dental X-rays are necessary, your dentist may use a lead apron and thyroid collar to minimize exposure to the abdomen and thyroid. It's essential to inform your dentist if you are pregnant or suspect you might be, so they can take appropriate precautions or defer non-urgent X-rays until after pregnancy.

Should be avoided as far as possible. Can use a thyroid collar and lead apron if at all necessary to protect both from radiation

Dental x-rays are generally considered safe during pregnancy . The amount of radiation exposure from a dental x-ray is usually very low. However, because there is a small chance of harm from any amount of ionizing radiation, dental x-rays should only be taken when considered necessary by your dentist.
