I am leaving this practice immediately. I took my 4 year old in today for his second filling. the first time he cried a little with the novocaine, but held still and we had no issues. Today I went at lunch time, was pressured into getting laughing gas and my son was essentially tortured. We both left in tears. She put the gas on, 10 seconds later the gel, then immediately shot the novocaine. She gave him no time for the prep to take effect before the needles. When I questioned her, she chastised me and lectured me about her experience. She started to drill and he was screaming and twisting and kicking, i asked is he numb, I think he feels it and she said "this is not supposed to be like Disney world!! I was shocked and began to cry myself. She accused me of not allowing her to move forward when I expressed concern about his pain and ripped everything out of his mouth and confronted me with the option to do it another time!? why on earth would I stop and then put him through that again, she never once asked him if he felt pain. The laughing gas did nothing. I am horrified! I always liked this practice and it was fine for cleanings, but don't ever trust them to do fillings. there was zero concern for me or my son.
