Some dentist practices (maybe they are chains) do seem very shady when it comes to overtreatment. I remember on my first visit to an office that I was recommended customized trays that I could wear overnight to have my teeth/gums soaked in hydrogen peroxide gel. This recommendation felt like a sales pitch and when I researched the proposed treatment code later I started to find some dentists online claiming that they wouldn’t recommend those because they are not clinically proven to work against gum disease.
I understand that radiation effects are cumulative but is this overexposure source worth fighting against as a patient?
