How often to visit—and when X-rays matter

Your recall schedule is personal

Ask your oral health provider how often you should return and why. Gum concerns, home care and cavity risk can affect the recommendation.

X-rays have a specific purpose

A dentist uses your history and clinical findings to decide when images are needed. You do not automatically need X-rays at every appointment.

Useful questions to ask

• What will this image help you assess?
• Can recent images from another office be used?
• When should I return for hygiene care and a dentist’s examination?

LiL Dental Hygiene does not advertise on-site X-ray services. Ask the practice about coordination with your dentist.
