the worst part is …
the worst part is when damage or disability due to “treatment” is temporary and financial loss is low. No lawyer will take the case because patient/customer hasn’t suffered severe permanent damage or disfigurement and there’s very little money in it for lawyers. Thre’s no justice for consumers when it comes to healthcare business.
@wendykpa You …
@wendykpa You raise a good idea. However, the Better Business Bureau severely lacks any real reporting requirement and many complaints are usually explained away.
This man tried to interest first, but because he had such poor bone and then petitioned, they kept falling out. He was promised all sorts of miracles by this dentist, and the dentist clearly failed to live up to the basic standard of care.
Probably good you …
Probably good you made this video to alert those seeking implants. It is true that you only get what you pay for. Always check any dentist out with the better business bureau first. I’m wondering why he didn’t try dentures first tho.
I can see both of …
I can see both of your point of view. I completely agree about the exaggerated complications, yet on the other hand, the take home message is “you get what you pay for”

If he didn’t have …
If he didn’t have money to do the prosthetic stage, it’s his fault. One or two implants that might have been placed in less than ideal positions doesn’t mean that the patient is a victim. Many malpractice suits are based on complications that are seriously blown out of proportion.
Unless the dentist used the MDI mini implants, it’s just another case of miscommunicationion, some complications and unclear patient expectations.
I have seen it many times. I correct complications.
@cmdmd My client …
@cmdmd My client didn’t choose to “close the blinds.” Instead, he was hoodwinked by a slick dentist who promised him many things he simply couldn’t live up to. My client had no money to get restorations from anyone else, because nobody wanted to repair his disaster, and nobody was willing to undercut their prices to the level this guy did.
Implants can be a …
Implants can be a wonderful thing, when done properly. I have been witness to several cases where the patient screams “malpractice”. Truthfully, the concept of “damages” gets too exagerated by attorneys everywhere in the name of LEGAL FEES.
And yes, THEY CAN BE RESTORED with fixed prostheses. It’s seems that this is about patient expectations. I’d have to review the case.
How people deal with their problems is THEIR problem. He chose to “close the blinds” Bah.
u forgot the fact …
u forgot the fact that when nerves r damaged u can loose the sense of taste.
I had a botched wisdom tooth op.
dentist took 45 minutes of yankingm smashed my tooth, I went into shock and had a fit, I then had to wait 3 months to get the tooth out at a sedation clinic.
The dentist put his finger in my arse hole to sedate me, I didnt sew.
also if friends and family fall out with someone just because they have no teeth then u r best rid of them.
although some …
although some people need compensation, these personal injury lawyers encourage peole to sew for anything, and they sew, as a result insurance is going sky high, also the lawyers get more in wages than the client gets in compensation, theyre like vampires.
things don’t have …
things don’t have to be exaggerated but they do get. Whether you agree or not. I ve been to court as expert witness on cases and how many exaggerated cases have I seen? So, don’t try to glorify current legal trend to med field.
@regkjoe The video …
@regkjoe The video does not imply nor suggest that these horrible things happened to me. Rather, I made it clear that this happened to a client of mine; someone who I had the privilege of representing.

@regkjoe
You think my client exaggerated the fact that his dentist improperly put in 20 dental implants? You think my client wanted to walk around his city with no teeth in his mouth? You think the multiple other dentists who treated my client exaggerated that they had never seen such horrible dentistry in their careers?
There’s no exaggeration and personally I don’t believe any client or lawyer should be exaggerating any injury an injured victim suffered. They don’t need to.
oh, one more thing, …
oh, one more thing, those cases keep happeninig driving up med insurance cost because people like you help it. On video you describe thinkg like it happens to you. It didn’t.
you might think …
you might think people need to be defended when wronged by medical profession or whatever.. many people take an advantages of similar situations and many times with lawyers’ exaggerations, they do just that. Whatever you say, I know since imin the med filed as well..
As much as I know …
As much as I know you want to see the gory pictures of before and after, I have to respect my clients privacy in that he does not wish to be further embarrassed by what he went through.
Become a doctor and …
Become a doctor and after that …we can talk about ,,,, and one more thing … you describe the “horrible experience” …. i wanna see pictures with the pacient before and after the “horrible experient” …. !
You are correct. I …
You are correct. I am just a lawyer who has been in practice handling medical malpractice and accident cases for over 21 years. I am not a doctor and never claimed to be.
Having handled many, many different types of malpractice cases I have learned much medicine from my clients and my medical experts. This video describes a horrible experience that my client suffered.
you are just a …
you are just a lawyer ….:)
Is that really what …
Is that really what you wanted to see?
Please do not tell me that you only wanted to view gory looking photos, or a video of this broken man speaking without any teeth. Thankfully, I chose not to subject my client to further humiliation by showing the awful condition of his mouth. There are plenty of other gory photos and videos of tragedies online, and this will not be one of them.
no one picture no …
no one picture no one video of the case…this is just bla bla bla.

@regkjoe
An improperly positioned implant that cannot hold a restoration cannot be “restored many times.” In fact, in this case, all implants needed to be removed, bone grafting was required, and a after lengthy healing period, he would require the insertion of all new implants; assuming that he still had sufficient bone left to accommodate new implants.
again, if walkikng …
again, if walkikng around with metal stubs on your gum is odd or perceived as freak, then you shouldn’t have considered getting implant in first place. if they are staying in the mouth, then they are fused to the bone( called osteointegration) and then with difeerent post design on top, they can be restored many times.
