What are bite rings?

my dentist said i would have to get them but didnt say what they were plz help
Answer:
As a dentist myself it seems like you may have confused what your dentist said. He/she probably told you that you will need Bite Wings, which are in fact a type of x-ray used in the back of your mouth for the molars. These do not hurt at all, all your dentist will do is place these small pieces of covered film in your mouth that you will bite down on.
there rings with thick rubber and you bite on them
The dentist meant "bite wings" which are x rays of your back molars. The wings refer to the way the dental film is positioned in your mouth. It looks like a wing once you bite down on the film. Don't worry - x rays don't hurt at all.
