I totally get the confusion with X-rays—every time they show me those black-and-white images, I just nod like I understand, but honestly, it could be a weather map for all I know. When my cousin had a bunch of “urgent” cavities, we got a second opinion and the new dentist said some were just stains or super shallow spots that didn’t need drilling yet. I guess sometimes dentists are just being extra cautious, but it’s hard to tell what’s really necessary. Makes me wonder how often people get work done they might not actually need...
