I took my toddler son to visit Dr. Casas and all seemed fun at first. The waiting room had games and was kid friendly but behind the doors was a bad experience. I took my son for a toddler check up to make sure all was fine but the staff and Doctor insisted he needed a fluoride treatment and I was uncomfortable with the procedure. The nurse the forced/held my son down in the chair and the held his head down and poured this fluoride in his mouth. He was screaming/crying and then vomited from the fluoride. I was so shaken up and my son was so very upset and cried the whole way home. I called our pediatrician and he said this was not normal and told us never to go back. He said they could have hurt his head forcing him down like that and the fluoride treatment was not necessary that young. His teeth were perfect. Since that experience our son is traumatized by dentist and had his teeth touched. We have since found a professional and kid friendly dentist but we still think in horror of that day. My husband also said we should have taken our son out of there when they insisted on forcing him down and held his head in such a bad manner. Hope this helps someone else so they do NOT have to put their kids through a traumatizing situation. We do NOT recommend ? NOT KID FRIENDLY?Beware.
