Best dentist in Thunder Bay. Took care of my pain immediately

Excellent dentist. Always a good listener. the freezing was almost painless.He has earned my trust!

First off, I did NOT get Dr Scott for my dentist when I went in. I was 7 months pregnant w my son and was suffering from a horrible tooth ache from one of my bottom molars breaking and the nerve was exposed. The molar was clearly starting to rott badly. Every pregnancy ive had, my babies robbed me of my calcium plus they were getting their own from vitamins etc lol. Anyways, my tooth…rotting…big sucky pregnant woman in pain…in comes an “ethnic” Dentist to word it w/o discrepancy I hope. The Dental hygienist was a very pleasant young lady that was not treated well by this “Dentist”…. The hygentist was trying her best to reassure me and assistant the Dentist. The Dentist, argued with me and treated me like a p.o.s because I refused to get a root canal on my rotting tooth!!! She roughly put the needles in my gums for freezing which made me tense up my belly and cry! Then she left me there crying and came back in about 20 min later to start the ” extraction” slamming her tools on that metal tray beside my head to start w. She poked my gums and asked if could feel it and I said yes so of course she argued again w me! She storrmed back out of the room and came back w more freezing…There she went stabbing my gums w more freezing huffing grunting cuz i wasnt going to get a root canal on my rotten tooth!!! She also told me that I must have had other adult teeth pulled because I’m missing molars and have no wisdom teeth….I tried to explain to her that they never came in!!!! I got one extra molar at 17 and I guess that’s one of the four your supposed to get at the age of 12??? Like why would I lie lol! What benefit would lieing about my teeth have on me haha! …soooo away she went with her drill when I screached in pain!!! I wasn’t numb totally and the Dentist looked as if she could care less!….finally after yanking and prying and slamming my jaw back n forth out my long rooted rotten molar came..She threw my tooth with the tool attached on the metal tray beside my head and walked out!!!! Omg!!! My jaw hurt so bad and to this day (2 years later) my jaw cracks when I eat and aches. I’ve had teeth pulled b4 (as a kid) and this was by far the most horrifying ordeal w a Dentist! I refused to book as follow up and will not let my kids go there either. My oldest daughter had an appointment a short time after me and it was w a dif Dentist…. Same horrible bed side manner, she went fully frozen…she came out crying and that just broke my heart! CHILDREN!!! I highly recommend Dr Judy Martin. She’s located by victoriaville….She’s absolutely amazing!
