OMG THAT IS DISGUSTING.

I don't recall either of my parents ever coming into the dental exam room with me when I was a child, but IIRC, there were no doors between the waiting room and the exam room, and if I had screamed, my parents would have run in to see what was going on. (Fortunately, my exams pretty much amounted to, "Let's check your teeth - hey, no cavities, congratulations! I'll do a cleaning and then we'll take a Polaroid of you for our 'Kids With No Cavities Wall'.")

These poor children could be traumatized for life. In these cases, we're talking about baby teeth, but they may grow up so fearful of the dentist that they avoid getting regular cleanings of their adult teeth, and that can lead to gum disease and other nasty things.
