I am gonna go out on a limb here and posit that XRAYS generate revenue.

Everything generates revenue.

The exam, the xray, the extraction, the implant, the crown.

Just because it generates revenue doesn't mean its a scam.

If you thought you broke your leg, you would need an xray to look at the hard tissue surrounded by soft tissue.

Your teeth are not different. 75% of your tooth is below the gums and is in bone. Without the xray, you would miss cavities in between teeth, infection, defects or damage to the surrounding bone, etc, etc. You have to have an xray to diagnose hard tissue that isn't visible.
