I would not recommend this Dentist to anyone. I had a tooth extracted. He did not look over my history or X-rays, nor did he talk to me about them. He introduced himself and said, “Please open your mouth” and he jabbed me with a needle. No warning and no topical. He said, “We don’t do that for adults. It doesn’t work.” It has in the past.
The nitrous oxide I requested and pre-paid for was there but not administered. He said, “That stuff doesn’t work.” I insisted on it.
I was NOT numb. The nitrous had not been on long enough, nor was it high enough. He did not check to see if I was numb yet he started pulling the tooth. I’m now SCREAMING and he asks if it hurts. He can’t get the tooth out and stops. Again he says, “Did that hurt?” I say, “I thought you were being facetious. When someone is letting out a blood curdling scream, I think that should be self-evident that the person is in pain”!
He says, “This is a ’hot’ tooth and you should have been put out for this”. He’s the professional? Why didn’t he determine that ahead of time, tell me, and re-scheduled for another day when I could have been put out?
This is only the tip of the ice burg as to what happened throughout the procedure. Berwick has no compassion.
