Yes, but it isn't recommended. It will depend on the dentist and the child. For kid's that really don't want to be there and that become very upset, having a parent in the room only makes it worse. The child will cry longer and harder waiting for the parent to comfort them and get them out of the chair. And parents have a hard time sitting there without saying something to a child that may be crying and it just confuses the child as to who they should be listening to.

But, if you don't know the dentist and have any doubts at all, by all means, stay in the room. If you feel comfortable enough to let the dentist and assistant do their job, trust me, it always goes smoother when the child can't see or hear their mom or dad.
