Would you even consider at all using a cosmetic dentist that had this happen to him? I found this Summaries of Regents Actions on Professional Misconduct and Discipline (NY) on a dentist I was considering using. It said he did
Action: Application for consent order granted; Penalty agreed upon: 24 month suspension, execution of last 18 months of suspension stayed, probation 3 years, 100 hours of public service, $30,000 fine.
Summary: Licensee admitted to charge of delegating professional responsibilities to a person or persons when he knew or had reason to know that such person or persons was/were not qualified by licensure to perform the acts; submitting insurance claims for reimbursement for professional services performed by unlicensed persons; and having been convicted of attempted unauthorized practice of dentistry and/or dental hygiene.
Im not sure what to do I just wish I had more details. The penalty seemed pretty stiff when compared to things other dentists did.

I would still see him.
Just make sure that he is the one who sees you, rather then delegating the task (you) to someone lacking skill

Well, lets see,fraud is pretty serious. How can you allow someone who would let an inexperienced/licensed person work on your mouth that holds SO many nerves in it. Paralysis is always a risk.The charges are only what he admitted to, he might have plead down to a lesser charge from one more serious. Anytime a physician looses his or her license is cause for a second thought

Surely you're kidding about seeing this guy! Are there no other dentists where you live? This doc has pretty low moral standards and could care less about his patients. Find a doc who doesn't have a big ad in the yellow pages....only has his/her name listed and you'll be lots better off.

would have serious reservations about this guy ...so i guess i personally wouldnt go see him. everybody deserves a second chance tho i suppose. he hopefully less likely to do it again so in that respect u probably safe .do u really need to go c him ? u say he's a cosmetic dentist so is it really essential work that needs doing ? difficult choice buddy!
