Hi

I had a check up a few days ago and the dentist took an x ray which wasn't developed until i had left the surgery. I received a phone call today asking me to go back in for another x-ray as there was a problem with the depth. does anyone know what this means ?as i worry about the slightest thing.to do with my teeth, although i have a feeling it might be to do with the x-ray itself and not my teeth. Thanks in advance.

Hey Maz why did you not ask them that question when they called? Just kiddin. You sound like me, I freeze up then think of question later. I am not for sure but it sounds like it is just the xray and not your teeth. Probably did not get clear picture or did not get whole length of tooth in picture, something like that. I would not be concerned really. : )

Thanks Sher,

You are totally right, when i took the call my knees were like jelly and could feel my heart beating so i just listened and then put the phone down. I am going on Monday for the x-rays so i will find out then what the problem is. thanks again
