Question:

These are dental intra oral xray film.

I tried looking in my books, but I couldn't see any info about them.

I don't want to throw them out since they do cost much.

Answers:
expired is expired- toss em

unless you want to expose them to unnecissary xray photons (which expose them for an image)

film goes bad, toss em- or ar eyou looking for a craft idea- make a book mark.

you want to do something with them- send them to a third world contry that cant afford film (may not be diagnosticly the best film, but they have nothing- Donate to a good cause

Dont store it- best to just let it go
(most places it is strict not to use "expired items" - Esp in HEALTH care- think about it before you try continue using)

Other Answers:
I would still use them, I would think the expiration date is more for factory purposes so they can keep track of there inventory. I am sure your films will turn out fine.
