Upselling for a cancer screening? That is interesting. My dentist does it automatically as part of the annual exam. They use a special light. I'm not sure I understand the reasoning for making it optional - either you need it or not, in their professional opinion.

So when I ask for just a regular cleaning they told me that would be malpractice because I need a "Deep cleaning".
