Read the dialogue below.
Sam: Hello, Doctor.
Dr. Harel: Good morning, Sam. How are you doing today?
Sam: I'm OK. I've been having some gum pain recently.
Dr. Harel: Well, we'll take a look. Please recline and open your mouth...that's good.
Sam: (after being examined) How does it look?
Dr. Harel: Well, there is some swelling of the gums. I think we should also do a new set of X-rays.
Sam: Why do you say that? Is there something wrong?
Dr. Harel: No, no, it's just standard procedure every year. It looks like you may have a few cavities as well.
Sam: That's not good news.
Dr. Harel: There are just two affected teeth.
Sam: I feel relieved.
Dr. Harel: We need to take X-rays to identify if there are other problems especially in between teeth
Sam: I see.
Dr. Harel: Here, put on this protective apron.
Sam: Sure no problem.
Dr. Harel: (after taking X-rays) Things look good. I don't see any evidence of further cavities.
Sam: That's great!
Dr. Harel: Yes, we just need to get your teeth cleaned.
Sam: Thank you, Dr. Harel
