Apparently she was abused and assualted as a kid when she went to have a procedure done when she was 6 or 7. She is now 35 or so and has came forward. She posted around 8pm last night and has a 1000 replies and many other ppl sharing their same experiences.

Is this the dentist that doesn't allow parents to go to the back with their kids?

Wouldn’t all the tooth nurses have witnessed this over the years? Nobody spoke up? Sometimes we remember things differently as kids but if a lot of people had the same experience who knows?

Yes he did they same thing to our son about 4 years ago. He was 7 at the time and they took him to the back without our permission and pulled 2 teeth, then we got a bill for it. Never asked us, nor did we every okay it. Of course our son was upset about, we weren't allowed back there. He came back up front to my wife crying and missing 2 teeth.

Pulled my son's tooth without asking for my consent. When I questioned him about it, his response was, "Well, it needed to be pulled so I figured I'd just go ahead and take care of it." Needless to say we switched dentists soon after.

Dentists aren’t fun for anymore.

For those that brush and care for their teeth, they are not as bad.

What is she referring to? Its a little vague. Did he touch her inappropriately or beat her when she cried in pain?

I read about this last night. I feel bad for any kids treated this way by their dentist.

My children's pediatric dentist in BR also didn't allow parents in the treatment rooms but he didn't do any of these awful things.

I was always informed of procedures that needed to be done at future visits and had to give approval for those.

My children were treated very well by the dentist and his staff.

I never liked him much when we were at Smile Stars. We saw Dr. Hunt, and when she left that practice to start her own, we stayed with Smile Stars for a short period since the kids were familiar with the place. I got a bad vibe from him the one time my kids did see him--nothing awful happened, he just seemed creepy and the kids didn't seem to trust him. After that we left and followed Dr. Hunt to her new practice.

I never believe these people and their stories from years back but I 100% believe this girl. I certainly wouldn’t take a kid to this guy.
