Medical providers in the US do not compete on price. There is in general little to no price transparency, as everything is traditionally paid for by private insurance. So as a rule, dentists will charge the maximum allowed by private insurance for x-rays.
In the US, people are complaining more and more about the cost of healthcare, but usually in terms of the cost of insurance. They never ask why providers charge what they do (p.s. - if you're in the hospital, don't ask your nurse to bring you a tissue, just buy some from the gift shop).
