Before filling the tooth whether it is advicebale that dentist should take the x-ray then explain to the patient and then do filling . As yesterday i go to the dentist then he check my cavity and told me there are four cavities in your teeth and at a time only 2 can be remove. Then without taking any x-ray and without explaining me anything he removes the two cavity . PLease tell me whether it's a right approach (as one of my friend also had the filling but his dentist take the x-ray befor filling then do temporary filling then permanent) Please suggest me what is the right way of doing filling whether i had to check my tooth again to some other doctor or it's fine

Its not compulsory to take xray. With experience dentist knows what treatment is needed. If caries is superficial only filling will be sufficient.
