I'm guessing this can't happen for institutional reasons, but given that dentists are using x-rays + cameras, and apparently even sending people home with copies of images, is there room for a standardized ML-based "check" which could help catch cases where individual dentists are recommending something well outside some consensus/standards of care? If everyone could easily check their images against the same bot, and pool information, one could identify dentists who regularly recommend unnecessary work. Or we could normalize the idea of getting the exam done by dentist A, and getting the work done by some other undisclosed dentist B, so they're not incentivized to give bogus recommendations?
