It's like ya wanna be able to pull them aside and say " if you didn't listen to the " programming " response you are suppose to give to patients..what would you really say! And....if they don't feel it is a issue, why do they go hide in another room to take the x-ray! (shielded from the rays) Oh they could say...' " that they would be exposed to to much raditation throughout the day from givng others x-rays, but again..what is toooo much!? My dentist gives me the same-ole song and dance when i bring it up. But of course he isint going to tell the truth.. " hey these x-rays might be bad for your health " Shit, he would be loosing money if he did that! That would be pathetic! lol God forbid!
