I'm nearing my 80th year. I not only don't plan to live to be 100, I have plans to NOT live to be 100. (Can't think of a more awful experience) 

So my teeth start to wear down or some have to be pulled. I'll live with it. No, I dont' have them "whitened". 

But my dentist (who I get along with fine and suspect he is as good as most) has a "policy" that I, and all those who sit in his dentist chair, have X-Rays every year. 

I don't like the program and object to the cost, but I've been seeing this guy for years, it's where I get my teeth cleaned (I like the sparkling feeling after cleaning) and I'll return. 

But I wonder about this policy and without knowing for sure I'll bet it will be common, if not already so. 

Oh well...it's only money. But it's MY money.

Funny you bring that up. Part of my shopping a new dentist is finding one who will abide by my request of no xRays period unless I have a tooth that hurts or breaks. I am done playing by their rules, my mouth, my teeth, my decisions.
Good luck with that. Many of them will tell you to find someone else. They claim it's an "insurance issue" and protects them from us coming back later saying we did not get adequate care.
