On March 25, 2026, I contacted five dental offices in Cottonwood, Arizona (including this one) in…read morean attempt to schedule a needed cleaning. Every one shamefully denied me treatment. Each one sought to potentially injure me by demanding a series of dangerous and unnecessary dental x-rays. They falsely asserted that they routinely need the series every three years before they can conduct a simple cleaning. They asserted that this is mandated by the American Dental Association (ADA). First, there is no 3-year rule or policy. The dentists fabricated that. Second, the ADA's new 2026 guidance reads the OPPOSITE. The ADA mimics the Arizona Administrative Code R12-1-407 which considers dental x-rays to be dangerous (i.e., there is no safe level of ionizing radiation). Both mandate that dental x-rays only be ordered where medically necessary, and not routinely. I then contacted the Arizona Dental Association and they wrote back concurring that these dentists were operating illegally and dangerously in violation of Arizona law. Dental x-rays may not be acutely dangerous but they are cumulative in their hazards, which means your cancer may not develop for 25 years from their unnecessary x-rays. Too late to sue the dentist. The genetic damage leading to cancer can build on itself year after year. The push for expensive x-rays seems to be motivated by profits instead of patient safety. MetLife and other medical malpractice insurance companies, on their websites, endorse the positions of the ADA and the State of Arizona. No one supports unnecessary medical procedures, especially if they are dangerous. You should know that 100% safe dental imaging exists. This includes dental ultrasound, which in many cases is actually superior to x-rays in detecting early cavities. Insist on ultrasound. Maddy Cottonwood, AZ Age 69 - Veteran
