The Incident
Our client underwent a routine tooth extraction at a local dentist’s office and dental clinic. However, what should have been a straightforward procedure turned into a life-threatening situation. The dental clinic failed to determine whether our client was taking blood thinners, a critical oversight that put their safety at serious risk.

Following the procedure, our client experienced excessive and prolonged bleeding. Despite the clinic being informed of this alarming complication later that evening, they failed to take appropriate action to address the situation or mitigate the harm caused. This negligence placed our client in a vulnerable and dangerous position, with severe physical and emotional consequences.
How Cantor Injury Law Took Action
When our client came to us, they were understandably distressed and seeking accountability for the harm they had endured. Mark Cantor and our team immediately began investigating the case. We gathered all necessary evidence, including medical records, expert opinions, and communication logs with the clinic, to demonstrate the clinic’s failure to meet the standard of care.
Recognizing the gravity of the situation and the need for swift action, we prepared a comprehensive lawsuit against the dentist and the clinic. Additionally, we issued a time-limited settlement demand to the clinic’s insurance provider, outlining the damages caused by their negligence.
The Outcome – $300,000 Settlement for Medical Negligence in Dental Procedure
Just before the lawsuit was filed, the dental clinic and its insurer agreed to settle the case for $300,000, acknowledging the strength of the evidence and the seriousness of their misconduct. This settlement provided our client with the financial resources needed to address the medical complications caused by the clinic’s negligence and compensate for their pain, suffering, and emotional distress.
