Unfortunately I have been going to this dentist for years with the same results each and every time; in hopes that maybe "this time" he will be better. During my last exam/cleaning, he did the job in about 15-20 minutes. During the session, i felt so much pain and i felt that he was doing the cleaning quickly and carelessly. I dont know what the instrument is called that he was using, but its used to scrape off tar from teeth, he was using it on my gums and teeth like it were a crayon! just brushing back and forth, back and forth carelessly. I was moaning in pain, he did not bother to stop or ask how i were doing. He was actually treating another patient in the other room at the same time, and he had about 3 other people in the waiting room. I guess he felt that he was rushed, but thats no excuse to treating me any different. In the end, he stated that I had a cavity and to come back to fill it, he did not want to fill it right then and there I think he just wanted to bill my insurance for a new visit. After he cleaned my teeth, i spit out blood and CHUNKS of blood, which NEVER happened before. this was the worst experience I've had with him and the LAST! This time i wont ever go back to Dr. Beatus again.

About Hygienist: I remember he just said hello and asked if i flossed every day.

I know this doctor: 5 years
