A member asked:
Could a lot of dental xrays in a short period of time cause brain tumor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What is a lot ?: Hard to say what you may consider "a lot". Dental radiographs are of a very, very low diagnostic dosage, and are aimed at your teeth. It is highly unlikely that any tumors in your brain resulted from casual dental radiation.
