On Feb, 22 2023 I went into the Chas Dental Clinic to get my first molar on the left side of my mouth pulled. Prior to that I went in the clinic for a consultation and was told that I just needed to make sure I didn't get a dry socket. I did sign the consent but the consent stated on there that the provider went over it with me. *** who is ****************** did not go over any of the risk that could happen with pulling a top tooth, only the dry socket. It took longer then normal according to the provider to pull the tooth. ****************** stated that it was a deep pulling. And as soon as he pulled the tooth I could feel pressure in my left nostril which I let him know immediately. He still said nothing about my sinuses being in danger. On the consent form that we did not go over it mentioned that pulling one of the top teeth could lead to sinus problems and more surgeries. A few months past and in the summer months I had to go into the ** due my sinus really bothering me. *** ** doctor stated that I had a sinus infection and said I needed to flush my nose every day for a week. After the week it did not get any better so I went back to the ** and they gave me antibiotics. After taking the medicine, my symptoms got worse. I started to notice mucus in my mouth, and it seemed to be coming out of the spot where that tooth was pulled. So now I was have problems breathing, a lot of pressure in my nose and head, also mucus draining down my throat and in my mouth. I made a appointment with Chas Dental and went in on Oct. 4, 2023 where they confirmed I had a hole in the spot where my tooth was. Also the my sinus were damage and now draining in my mouth. Chas told me that there was nothing they could do because I sign the consent but the consent stated the provider went over everything with me and he did not. I have had to spend over ***** dollars and two surgery's later trying to get my sinuses fixed and it is not fixed. I have been in pain and can't breath since the tooth was pulled.
