I had a routine cleaning and x-ray screening done at Dr. Bles' office a few months ago. While the staff and the dentist were very nice, I would never go back again. I had to wait for over 45 minutes past my appointment time to be seen. There was not much privacy between rooms. The dental chair area needs renovation. After I was finished, I went to rinse my mouth out in the sink and I couldn't get the faucet to turn off, a problem that the hygienist seemed to be aware of as she offered to help me figure it out.
I have never been weary of dentists before this experience. I have never before had such a painful dental cleaning. My gums bled horribly during and after the cleaning. I believe he used some sort of a high pressure water pick to clean rather than, or in addition to regular dental instruments, and he wasn't very careful not to hit my gums several times. It was very painful; like being stabbed with needles. He pulled my mouth back and forth and I got splashed in the eye more than once. The chair side manner was very poor. He seemed to be in a big hurry to finish as quickly as possible. I think he was overbooked, but I don't think that is an excuse for such a poor experience.
