How nasty dentists are. These boys don't want to take responsibility for
anything. Everything seems to be the patient's fault. The fact that such a
high % are sued should tell you something. It's even higher than cosmetic
surgery an area where you would expect a high % of disgruntled patients.
If a patient comes in, for example, with a molar obviously on the way out
does the dentist really tell him the chances of success in saving the tooth?
Is it greater than 50%? Or does he tell him to do root canal, posts, crowns
etc that he knows have a greater than 50% chance of failing, because he's a
general dentist and it's $$$$ for him. Perhaps he should tell the patient to
extract the tooth and place an implant which cannot decay and had a much
better chance but then he would only receive his kickback referral fee from
the surgeon rather than the fee for all the useless work.
Now let's listen to the defensive and vicious replies, especially from
those who kill filed me lol

CORRECTION: Usually the lawyer's fault who eggs on the patients!

The fact such a high number are sued is because lawyers smell money and
follow it like a fly seeks out a dog turd. Most cases of "malpractice" are
not malpractice, they are people having unrealistic expectations (I
neglected my teeth for years, but my dentist missed a cavity a month ago,
how do I sue), and poor communication. Sure there is sometimes poor and/or
over aggressive treatment, but such cases represent a small percentage of
those that prompt law suits.
Your behavior in this group, which seems to serve little purpose other than
annoying people, seems to be a fine example of the standards some attorneys
have. There are undoubtedly many fine, ethical, and honest attorneys, then
there are bottom feeders like yourself, who seem proud to be a "shyster" and
find joy in irritating people for sport. I am sure there are dentists that
are similar in temperament, but I'd imagine they are probably acting like
imbeciles and trolling some law NG .

They can smell money anywhere. The fact that so many dentists are sued is
because there is simply more negligence and greed in dentistry.

Who gave them those expectations? Or I should say who didn't put things into
perspective for them? Perhaps the high fees actually cloud the dentist's
judgement which is passed on to the patient in "unrealistic expectations"
(I

How did he miss it, was it that tiny? Does the dentist wear glasses? Is he
too old to see what he's doing?

From what I've seen of dentists I would have to estimate that 50%+ are
incompetent and in fact cause more problems than if the patient was just
left alone without treatment.

I'm a general dentist and I'm loaded $$$
Fortunately in Canada there are very few dentists who are successfully sued.
99% of the cases go in the dentists favor.
Have fun being mad at the world.

Perhaps that's because you have a socialised system.

I'm not a dentist but you are a bottom feeder of the worst kind. I know
good dentist and have seen some I don't care for. I also have had good
attorneys and lousy ones. You are a ambulance chaser and have no shame and
your info is bull. You say what is in YOUR best interest in hopes of
getting people to sue. Like I said before you are a waste of space and have
no shame. From what I have seen, the dentists here have been more polite
than you and should have told you to get lost. I hope others who lurk
ignore this ignore idiot. See, it's not the dentists that are rude, you can
now blame me and ask me if I care! NO I don't! UM MOM Susan
