I take all three of my children to this office. We have been going for about 14 years. My children love it here and I do as well. They have a great playroom along with several game stations. (TV's for watching while you get your teeth checked) Over the years, I have really got to know the staff and the doctors always take the time to talk with me. It really bothers me that on negative experience out ways the many positive experiences so many people have had. Come on, start trusting the professionals!! Don't believe everything you see or hear on the internet. Dr. Day alone has been practicing for over 30 years. I myself love this office and staff and would highly recommend taking your children here. The only problem you will have is getting them to leave.

Pediatric and Teenage Dentistry has been amazing! I started going there at a very young age. I always felt safe and the staff went above and beyond to make my experience a good one.

Highly recommend this office to anyone. I take all 4 of my children to Pediatric and Teenage Dentistry. My little ones have all had to go back for procedures and they all act according to thier personalities. It is for the child's own safety to how they need to be restrained. You can rest assure, these people love thier kids and are kind and professional every time. Parents tend to make the child worse if they are brought back so the best decision for all involved is to allow the professionals to do thier job. Best doctors and staff in town. Look no further for all your kids dental needs and don't forget the fun too! This place is amazing.

My child was scheduled with Pediatric and Teenage Dentistry in Morgantown, WV to have a spacer removed and a baby tooth extracted. As we proceeded to the back of the office, a lady had me sign a consent form for my child to be "lightly" restrained. When she told me to go to the waiting room, and they would call me back when he was finished, my child began to cry and have high anxiety. That didn't matter to the staff at this dentist office. I said, "I don't want him to be upset when he starts the procedure." She said that he would be fine, and hurriedly having him go back into the room, she and another staff lady was promising him stickers. I could hear him crying. I asked one of the staff to go in and tell them to stop because my son was crying, and I further told her that I did not want my son upset during the procedure. She told me we couldn't go back there once they are in "the room." Well, I knocked on the door, and when no one answered,

I opened the door. What I saw was unbelievable and inhuman period! My child was laying totally strapped down. His wrists were strapped down, and he was also wrapped in what they "professionally" call a papoose board. His neck was only supported by a small white, rolled towel. His head did not appear to be supported. He was crying, "Mommy, they tied me up!" When I ask if the way he was laying was safe, I was told it was safer that way. My child had much sinus drainage. Therefore, I do not even see how it could have been safe. How could any human being strap down, tie up, whatever you want to call it to a child with such high anxiety is beyond my human brain. The paper I signed says "lightly restrained." My child was NOT lightly restrained in any way, shape, or form. He had another procedure done another time there, and I was definitely given the impression that this "blanket" they use for the "light restraining" was soft and warm and the arms go into it

like a sleeve. I was definitely mislead. Oh, and no stickers were given.
