    Thank you all. I did not 'lie' on my medical form, I just put no for all conditions and said I do not use tobacco (I am a daily smoker and my hospital medical records state I am a daily smoker). I was in a rush at the Dentist and in pain so I just signed everything quickly including just...

    Thank you these are very helpful points. I will try and talk to 2-3 attorneys, but one is willing to take on my case. I presume he is doing so because he knows he will win?! I did not disclose any medical conditions or tobacco use to the Dentist, when in fact I have minor conditions and am a...

    Medical Malpractice I want to sue my dentist

    I meant to say that an attorney is willing to take my case and write a letter to the Dental office. I want to know how this is likely to play out before hiring the attorney. This is my first experience with suing anyone.

    Hello, I am 25 and work in a shop floor. I am in the Texas jurisdiction. I went to a Dentist to have my tooth extracted. I have never been to that Dentist before. The Dentist recommended I get a root canal, but I opted for an extraction due to lower cost. I had the tooth extracted and the...
