Do you provide discounts for senior citizens?
Yes. Senior citizens receive a 10% discount on most procedures.
Are dental x-rays safe, and /or does radiation affect other organs not being protected by the lead apron?
Digital x-rays use much less radiation than any other medical x-ray, as there is a minimal amount of radiation being used over a short period of time. The apron is used as an extra precaution to protect the thyroid gland because it is the most radiosensitive organ. As long as all the recommended precautions are being followed, it is safe.
