Dr Bender was very unfriendly and scared my child. He didn't take any time to "visit" with her to make her comfortable, he just grabbed her mouth and tried to pry it open. She was so tramatized by the experience that I can't get her to visit another dentist.
My sister and I both went to Dr. Bender as children and both of us were severely traumatized by the treatment we received at his office. I have scars in my soft palate where he forced my mouth closed on a bite wing x-ray film that was too large. It cut into the tissue under my tongue and was severely painful. When I began to cry because of the pain, he told me to "Shut up, you big baby!" We also suspect that he gave us unnecessary fillings in order to bill our Medicaid insurance to pad his coffers. I never had a teeth cleaning at his office that didn't result in having a filling scheduled. I recently asked my current dentist to assess the old fillings (I have one in nearly every tooth) and he expressed his doubts that they were all necessary based their placement and the strength of my enamel.
Went here as a kid. He was completely horrible. From smothering me we I cried, to telling my that he kept babies in the closet. I cannot believe that he is still practicing. DO NOT TAKE YOUR KIDS HERE!
I took my daughter there last month to have her cap replaced. He took her back and made me stay in the waiting room. About 30 minutes passed, and he opened the door and said, "come here". My daughter was so red in the face and you could tell that she was very upset. Dr. Bender told me I needed to make wiser choices about the care of my daughter, and that was it. When we walked out of the office, my 7 year old completely let loose, and began crying hysterically. I asked what happened, and she said he shoved her mouth open, put the cap in place and forced her to bite down as hard as she could. She began crying, and Bender told her to shut up!!! He said there was a baby in the room and if she didn't shut up, she would wake up the baby. I was completely furious and let them know we would never be back again. He is rude and unprofessional!!!
