This dentist was abusive to the point of being sadistic. I went in for a root canal on a front tooth, and he handled my mouth so roughly, it caused pain, infection and disfigurement that lasted for months. My mouth was visibly swollen for several months, and I have photographs to document this. This was far beyond incompetent dentistry. It was traumatic and the damage he did required several expensive visits to an oral surgeon and a dentist to repair.
Thousands of dollars worth of visits to an oral surgeon and another dentist to repair the damage he did, plus a permanently damaged tooth. As a result of what Dr. Kirzhner did to me, I have never been able to fully bite down with that tooth and I have been told by my new dentist that I never will be able to do so again. He caused considerable physical, emotional and economic distress.
