Do I Really Need This Dental Treatment?

Do I Really Need This Dental Treatment?

How to Know What’s Necessary, What’s Optional and How to Get a Second Opinion Easily with Dentigi.

“You need a root canal. It’s urgent.”

You’re sitting in the chair, heart racing, trying to process the words.
Maybe your tooth hurt a little. Maybe it didn’t.
Maybe you were just coming in for a cleaning.

But now you’re faced with a major (and expensive) treatment recommendation – and you’re not sure if it’s really necessary. You’re not alone.

Every day, people walk out of dental clinics feeling unsure, anxious, and even a little suspicious. Not because they don’t trust dentistry – but because they don’t feel in control.

You’re Not Crazy for Asking: “Is This Real or a Sales Pitch?”

Modern dentistry offers incredible tools to restore health, prevent disease, and enhance confidence.


But here’s the truth: many patients don’t know the difference between what’s medically necessary, what’s cosmetic, and what’s optional.

It’s a blurry line, and with rising treatment costs, it’s no surprise that many patients are asking:

  • Do I really need this crown?
  • Can I wait on this root canal?
  • Is this pain serious or something that will go away?
  • Is there a less expensive alternative?
  • Should I get a second opinion?

These are smart questions. You’re not being difficult – you’re being responsible.

And Dentigi is here to help you get real answers, from professionals – not pressure.

The Problem: Dental Mistrust Is Growing

  • Rising costs
  • Complex treatment plans
  • Fear of over-treatment
  • Lack of clear explanations
  • No time or access to second opinions

The result? People either go ahead with treatment they’re unsure about – or delay it altogether, risking their health.

Dentigi was created to break this cycle.

Introducing Dentigi: Your Dental Search, Reimagined

Why Second Opinions Matter?

Dentistry is both science and art.
Different professionals may offer different approaches – and that’s okay.

What’s not okay is leaving a dental office feeling confused, afraid, or rushed into something you don’t understand.

Through Dentigi, you can request:

  • Second opinion consultations (online or in-clinic)
  • Upload X-rays or photos if needed
  • Get written explanations of your options
  • Ask real questions with no sales agenda

Real Story: “I Booked a Dentigi Second Opinion and Saved My Tooth”

“I was told I needed a £900 crown. I booked a second opinion on Dentigi and the new dentist explained that a composite restoration would work just fine for now. I felt heard—and saved hundreds. More importantly, I felt like I was in control.”
— Sarah M., London
