EM waves stands for Electromagnetic Waves. The EM waves used in dentistry are usually X-Rays. These electromagnetic waves go through your skin and other body tissue (don't worry it's not very harmful or bad for you). And reflect off your bones. Think of it as a camera, the X-Ray machine sends out a flash, then takes the picture. This 'picture' shows where your bones are and whats happening to them, like, are they coming out as an adult tooth? or will you need braces in a few years. That sort of thing.

Do all EM waves transfer matter from place to place?
False. EM Waves do not transfer matter, they transfer energy.
What TYPE OF Em waves are used in camera autofocusing?
Autofocusing is usually based on infra red radiation.
Which EM waves can carry television signals?
Radio waves. Low frequency.
The transfer of heat by means of rays?
Radiation is the means of heat conduction through electromagnetic (EM) waves. These waves are known as Thermal radiation and differ from other EM waves as Radio waves, Microwaves etc. The other two methods of heat transfer are Conduction and Convection where both require a medium (such as air, water etc.) for the transfer to take place.
Why electromagnetic waves cannot be used in SONAR?
EM waves cannot be used in SONAR because water is a conducting medium and thus EM waves would get shorted
