Consumer complaints has made two attempts to contact the author of this report for verification and to determine whether a police report was ever filed and the author has not responded. Consumer complaints investigated this report at the request of the orthodontist because the report contained many assertions that made no sense. Orthodontists don't work on 9 year olds — that is too early for braces, orthodontists don't use gas, and orthodontists do their work in big open rooms, not in private rooms.
Since the author hasn't responded, and since the report seems very suspicious, we have redacted the orthodontist's name.

I was directed to this seemingly nice dentist, Dr (REDACTED), for my young son's dental work. My little boy is only six years old. We went for the scheduled appointment and he was in the back for so long I thought that he must have some serious problems with his teeth. When he came out I thought he seemed more subdued than usual. Later in the car he told me the dentist tickled him with his mouth. It didn't take much questioning to find out where he was 'tickling' him. I was floored.
This man is an apparently upstanding member of the community. He is married and has two adopted children. I went back and confronted him and he laughed and said that my son must have had a reaction to the gas. After talking with a police officer, a lawyer, and a child psychologist, I decided reluctantly against putting my son through any more trauma by filing charges. I don't want anymore children to be preyed on by this monster though.
I was suggested to file this report here. I hope that this helps some other family avoid the horrible ordeal we have gone through.
