Digital Dental X-Ray (RVG) in Lucknow
A digital dental X-ray (IOPA/RVG) at Area Dental Clinic in Malhaur, Lucknow costs ₹250. The image appears on screen within seconds at a much lower radiation dose than conventional film, and you see it and have it explained during the same appointment.
What it is
RVG is digital intraoral radiography. A small sensor replaces film, so the image is instant, can be magnified and adjusted on screen, and uses a fraction of the radiation. Oral radiology is a particular focus of this clinic.
Signs you may need this

Reviewing it with you
We turn the screen towards you and show you what we are looking at. You should never be told what an X-ray shows without seeing it.

Common questions — Digital Dental X-Ray (RVG)
Is a dental X-ray safe?
A digital RVG dental X-ray delivers a very small radiation dose — far lower than conventional dental film and a tiny fraction of natural annual background exposure. We use a lead apron and only take images that will change the treatment decision.
Can I get an X-ray during pregnancy?
Elective dental X-rays are usually deferred, particularly in the first trimester. If there is an active infection or severe pain, a shielded single RVG may be justified because untreated infection carries its own risk. Tell us you are pregnant and we will decide together.
Can I take my X-ray with me?
Yes. Digital images can be shared with you or a specialist you are being referred to. Ask at reception and we will provide it.
