I appreciate this information about what to expect during a dental appointment. It is good to learn that X-rays are a normal part of the dental visit. It is also good to know that it is appropriate to discuss dental concerns with the dentist before leaving. Something to consider would be to choose a local dentist to facilitate visits.
