Paranoid about radiation from X-rays??

I went in for a general cleaning today as a new patient. During the X-ray portion, I held the Kodak camera in my mouth with my hand. The rest of my body was covered with the lead apron at this time. Did it cause additional radiation, and was it safe, for my hand to be out during the digital X-ray? With past X-rays, I was always biting down on the film/camera, rather than holding it up with my hand. Thank you!
