About Dental X-Rays
A dental X-ray is simply a tool the dentist uses to see exactly what is going on inside the teeth and gums and use this information to determine what, if anything, needs to be done. The procedure is simple and involves:
- Wearing a lead-lined bib which covers the chest and abdomen
- Having spacers or film holders fitted inside the mouth
- Holding still for a short space of time
Modern X-rays only require “low levels of radiation” that are deemed safe for adults and children. However, a pregnant woman should not get X-rays. A detailed article can be read at https://www.healthline.com/health/dental-x-rays.

Dr. Kishanie Wijesinghe Little BDSDr. Kishanie Little is passionate about delivering excellent dentistry and dental restorations that are life-like and indistinguishable from natural teeth. She believes that restorations (fillings/crowns/veneers) should look beautiful – and that they should last. Dr. Little keeps abreast of new developments in restorative dentistry through post-graduate training.
Dr. Little is also an experienced Facial Aesthetistician, including Botulinum toxins (such as Botox) and Dermafillers. She appreciates how simple and subtle changes to smooth and relax muscles can “freshen” a face, to look younger.
In her personal time, she loves to cook, read, run, practice yoga and pilates, play a bad game of tennis and am now learning to play golf. She loves Art and Theatre and support the Tate Modern. She also enjoys writing and has a book in the works.
