My husband actually mentioned this (the xrays not being mine). She had my xrays from 2 years ago and the new ones side by side comparing so hopefully she would notice if the teeth weren't the same. I sure hope so anyways!

Both sides of the scenario are hard to believe so I don't know. I can't believe a dentist would lie to me, but I have a hard time believing I developed so many cavities in such a short time.
bottom line is you not only brush but you floss to. so there should not be 13 cavitys, you clean your teeth the right way. if you just brushed and did not floss, that may be a diffrent story. and nobody should be cleaning your teeth if they don't have up to date x-rays. Penny
