Minnesota Woman Sues Dentist for Negligent Treatment Leading to Disfigurement
Dr. Kevin Molldrem Accused of Administering Excessive Anesthesia and Performing Extensive Dental Work in a Single Visit
- Kathleen Wilson has sued her dentist, Dr. Kevin Molldrem, for negligent treatment that she claims led to her disfigurement.
- Wilson received four root canals, eight dental crowns, and 20 fillings in a single visit in July 2020.
- Dr. Avrum Goldstein, an expert witness, stated that while Molldrem made the correct diagnosis, the treatment provided was of poor quality and did not address Wilson's susceptibility to dental disease.
- Goldstein also noted that Molldrem administered an unsafe dosage of anesthesia, exceeding the maximum dosage by nearly double.
- Wilson is seeking at least $50,000 in damages for medical costs, pain, embarrassment, disfigurement, and distress.
