The FDA recommendation on administratively required dental X-ray examinations states a principle that has been frequently endorsed by the American Dental Association. This recommendation, developed through a formal review process, reflects the views of dentists, educators, insurance carriers, professional societies, and other interested health professionals. Simply stated, it urges dentists to perform only X-ray examinations that are necessary for the patient's immediate dental needs. Dentists and others are urged to refer to this recommendation when presented with requests for radiographs considered unnecessary for patient care.
