“I’m not gonna hurt you”
*continues to blind me with his head lamp*

I appreciate this so much. I had a horrible experience as a kid. I was afraid and started crying and my dentist was screaming at me to shut up. When a grown ass man is screaming at you to shut up, it makes you even more uneasy. Really awful guy, but I thank you for being kind and reassuring to your patients ❤

This man needs a raise because this man does a great job encouraging all of these scared children in the middle of their dentist appointments we need more dentist like this

Mad props to this dentist. Handled so damn well. He understood the assignment.

I had my 1st oral surgery in 2nd grade & many, many more up til 21. Broken palate, gum removal, etc. My anxiety was so bad I didn't go to the dentist for over 25yrs. I've found an amazing dentist who is patient, kind, gentle, & understanding. He just pulled a huge molar today, & while I'm in pain right now, he kept reminding me to breathe & talking me through it. I lost many teeth from lack of care. He singlehandedly has saved every tooth he can. He's even tried new procedures he's yet to do that he'd record & share with this colleagues that worked. Thank you for not traumatizing her more than necessary & being aware of the real fear & pain some people feel especially when we don't even understand what you're doing or why.

It’s the fact that he understands the fear and panic, and then actively combats that for you. What an angel.

The compassion from this dentist is unmatched. We need more like him.

[karladuckworth]

Wonderful man u can see he loves people and has compassion ❤❤

[GLSSHEART]

“I’m not gonna hurt you” and the eye contact is everything that a child needs. It shows you care and I love that. We need more of it❤️

I love dentists that act like this, it calms me down and truly go with their words. I once went to this dentist office and they where trying to pull out teeth, as you know it hurts and i was a kid, and i kid you not, this dentist held down my head and arm where i was almost falling out the chair, this dentist was also an old man. He was also rude to my mom because she was saying how it does hurt and how she feels my pain, and i actually felt a little better with her words, then the dentist started saying, that just makes it worse, and not helping at all. After that my mother was mad.(They had numbness stuff on my teeth but it wasnt working) We never went back to this dentist office. I do now have more anxiety going to the dentist because of this experience, Im happy with the dentist office i go to now, when i had to get the tooth pulled (originally supposed to be pulled from the other office) they turned on the mini tv moniter and put on a show and put pink headphones on me, and when i tell you i almost feel asleep, i did feel a little pain during it but, they told me the numbness would work and it did, they stayed true to there word, and made me relaxed during it and said i did good.❤



(Sorry its long lol))

[Sweetyjdify]

Wow!!! he will be a great dad. His so good with children. God bless his heart of gold♥️

[iheartkimxy]

“look at me”
“I’m not gonna hurt you”
me : **instantly falls in love and calms down**

[jenellgallaher]

I'm a certified dental assistant and let me tell you, this man is pure gold. I gave up my career years ago due to the way the dentists I worked for would treat their patients. So when I see a good one with a heart, it warms me to my core.
