Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket by patients or through private dental insurance plans (often through employers) or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). Verify any potential public coverage and always check your private dental insurance details before treatment.

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays using minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are used.
