19. Yikes. My kids have been seeing a wonderful dentist for years.

She is a one-woman show and is a gem. She specializes in seeing kids with special needs and will take as much time as needed to make their visit as relaxed and pain-free as possible. For kids who needed sedation and whose insurance would not cover it, she had a local anesthesiologist who volunteered and provided services free of charge one or two days a month.

I originally took only my youngest child who has autism to her, but my son liked her so much that he started seeing her as well. She is very conservative in treatment and when we have needed specialists (orthodontists and oral surgeon for wisdom teeth extraction) she has recommended people who have been great.

Ask around and find another dentist if possible. There is NO excuse for such crappy treatment.
