I am sorry to hear that you had to endure these procedures. Please seek the advice of a local attorney that focuses their practice in the area of dental malpractice. . Remember that even though you have gone through an ordeal, you must be able to prove damages in any case to recover money. To that end, secure all your dental records and be prepared to explain how you have been damaged as a result of the experience you described above. I wish you the best.
