A Minnesota woman is suing her dentist for putting her through hell for over five hours by conducting 32 different procedures in a single, agonizing session.
Having to endure one root canal is traumatizing enough, but imagine having to sit through four root canal procedures, eight dental crowns, and no less than 20 fillings in a single session.
In just over 5 hours, her dentist, Dr. Kevin Molldrem, allegedly used about double the recommended dose of anaesthetic, in an attempt to fix all her teeth in a single session. His efforts allegedly left the woman disfigured and distressed, and she is now asking for at least $50,000 in damages.
The traumatic incident occurred in the summer of 2020 and left Henderson in pain. She had to undergo several other procedures just to fix the damage caused by Molldrem and she now wants him to pay.
Katie required a slow, thoughtful, careful and measured response to her disease,
Dr. Avrum Goldstein said.
Trying to fill every hole in every tooth in her mouth in one visit is not only the antithesis of what was indicated, it is not humanely possible to achieve in an effective or constructive manner.
For the trauma she had to endure, as well as for the cost of the medical intervention to mitigate the damage, Kathleen Wilson is now seeking $50,000 in damages.
