Answers:
Definitely NO, a doctor, dentist or any other professional is NOT, to kiss his patients!. This is a form of sexual harassment!. If it bothers you like you say it does you should report this immediately!. You don't say how old you are, if you are a minor, tell your parents or other older individual, if you are of legal age then you might mention this to his assistant or receptionist!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

That's very inappropriate and unethical for that dentist to do that! Some patients might have him charged for sexual harrassment if he does it to them!. I agree, don't EVER let him sedate you for a procedure without someone you trust being with you in the room the ENTIRE time!.

I highly advise that you look for another dentist as this behavior may seem innocent, but he could be "grooming" you into other things!. I know you probably like him and respect him as your dentist, but maybe he needs to be reported!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Nobody should do anything you're not comfortable with!.

If I were you, I would look into getting a new dentist, as that's rather odd!. Perhaps he's seen you grow up, and feels he is sort of a "family friend!."

Regardless, you should let him know about your discomfort with his behavior, find a new dentist, or both!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ok well there is this guy in town that opens a gym to play bball 3 times a week and he does that but he calls us his family!. wen new kids come in or say by he gives a hug and kiss on the cheek!. he is sooooooo nice and puerto rican so in his culture that is what they do!. so take his cultural background into consideration before you Judge him!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

That seems a little strange!.!.!. Are you good friends with your dentist!? If you don't really know him that well, I'd do something about it!. He could either be dangerous, or just likes you!. Sounds creepy!. Maybe, he likes your teeth, and they are really nice! lol!.!.!. Hope you find a solution!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

no its not a requirement and you should tell him you don't exactly care for it or just find another dentist!. he probably dont mean anything by it but since it makes you uncomfortable, you should say something!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Never, ever let this man put you out for an involved procedure, like wisdom teeth!.
