I went to the dentist and she said she was concerned with this xray/filling. Does anyone see anything weird with any of the fillings? I have no discomfort or pain. Would you do anything?

I would be very surprised if you needed a root canal. I think there is a small cavity near where the teeth touch but the dark area under the filling is just part of the old filling where the dentist used some material that is radiolucent. The new dentist probably thinks that represents deep decay. I am very doubtful that it is.
