Man Sues Dentist for Unnecessary Root Canal

By Steven M. Levin and John J. Perconti

ADVERTISEMENTS

A Chicago man has filed a medical malpractice lawsuit against his dentist after he claims he underwent an unnecessary root canal and extraction. According to the medical malpractice lawsuit the man visited a doctor complaining of pain in his 20th tooth. The dentist subsequently performed a root canal on the tooth, but the pain came back. He then planned to extract the tooth and replace it with an implant. A year later the man went back to the dentist with a fracture in the 19th tooth. It was discovered that the source of the man?s pain and the root canal and extraction of the 20th tooth was unnecessary. The two count medical malpractice suit also accuses the doctor of lack of informed consent. It seeks $50,000 plus legal costs.
