Dental 'professionals', left and right. They are professional scumbags, lots of them. Their dentistry, a professional con game too. What else would you expect? Mine sent copies of my xrays alright... so over exposed they are unreadable. I'm sure he was afriad of being sued.

It's illegal for them to nlot keep records, it's illegal for them to not give them to you if you request them, in the USA anyway, most states. Of course lots of them tell you otherwise... like mine did of course. I reported him to the state dental board. What became of it I really don't know I know they were 'investigating' a while, thing is it's such a corrupt industry from the get go that I don't think you can even reliably say that if a dentist did something illegal he'll even get a slap on the wrist.. he might well get a nod and a handshake very hard to say from what I can tell. They are only out there to make money without very much thought to anyone's real health, lots of them anyway, it's real obvious and so important to keep in mind. The fact that they charge $500.00/hr to put poison in your mouth is all the proof you should need. Everything is for the dentist's convenience, not the patient's. Must be, because there are good materials out there but most dentists only use the few that are cheap and easy to use. And they still charge like they are putting pure gold in there.


The only golden rule I can actually discern in the dental field is 'never ever admit you made a mistake'.
