So sad to lose a small child. Is this the story where the parents are suing the dentist, because he didn't prescribe the right dosage of medicine during the procedure? No amount of money is bringing the child, back to life.

I think the new kind of dentistry is very aggressive, and sincerely doubt if one needs all the work they say, needs to be done. I recently went to the dentist for a teeth cleaning, as I was not having any problems. They informed I would have to have a complete exam, before my teeth would be cleaned. HUH?

After the exam, I was informed I needed to have 8 teeth pulled and two bridges made. One to replace a perfectly good bridge. All for the cost of $3,000. They said I would get a break as they would do the repairs for $2,000I said I wanted to clean my teeth, after the exam, as they promised. They then told me, I needed to go to a peridontists, to have my teeeth cleaned. HUH???

Very small potato's compared to what happened to this small child.

I may be totally off base, but what were her parents thinking, to allow this to happen? Did they get another opinion, before subjecting this child to a procedure, that may not have been necessary?

I know it's always easier to look back and see what one should have done,
but zeeeshhhhhhhh!!!!!

So sad.
