I don’t know anything about teeth X-rays so I googled it later and made appointment with another dentist for a second opinion. Google indicated that these shaded vertical areas on the teeth are normal. The new dentist took new X-rays I paid twice for the same thing, and the second dentist agreed with google that everything was fine. My teeth still feel good but I am angry at that first dentist. There’ll be lots of input from me about him. (He did the same thing to my husband.)

May want to share the name of the dentist where you had that experience.
