If You Dislike Going To The Dentist,

this post is not for you!


photograph Quang Tri NGUYEN/Unsplash as a regular visitor to the dentist I have had more than my share of root cannels, one per visit is enough, the though of having 2 root canals in one visit just does not bear thinking about, so spare a thought for Kathleen Wilson, a Minnesota woman who had not 2 but 4 root canals performed on her in one visit to the chair, and worse also in the same 5 hour sitting had not only the four root canal procedures, but had eight dental crowns fitted, and no less than 20 fillings in a single session! Dr. Kevin Molldrem, is her dentists, it is also alleged that he gave her too much anaesthetic during the long session, and then faked documents in order to conceal it, Molldrem allegedly administered 960 mg of anaesthetic, almost double the 480 mg recommended for long procedures, to say the patient was left in a distressed condition would be a understatement, as you might expect Dr. Molldrem is being sued for the pain and suffering to the tune of $50,000, up to this point, Dr. Molldrem has refused to comment, the full story is here.
