I post this for two reasons….the question is posed by someone from Ontario – did the certification folks at U of T put her up to this? and two, the doctor to whom the question is being posed can be followed on TWITTER…….hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Every weekday, a CNNHealth expert doctor answers a viewer question. On Mondays, it’s pediatrician Dr. Jennifer Shu.
Asked by Karen from Ontario, Canada
I have had several dental x-rays within the past 3 to 4 years, as I have had braces, and other dental problems that have needed x-rays in order to deal with the problems. When I had my 3-D scan last summer I felt fuzzy for at least a day after the x-ray. Now again I had an X-ray three days ago, and I still feel very fuzzy and not all there. Is it normal to actually feel the effects of an x-ray?
