Grandmother, 64, dies after dentist tries to extract TWENTY teeth at once
Grandmother, 64, dies after dentist tries to extract TWENTY teeth at once after she begged him to stop.
A 64-year-old grandmother who lost consciousness in the dentist chair while undergoing a complex procedure to have 20 teeth extracted all at once, died just one hour later in hospital.
Retired librarian, mother-of-two and grandmother Judy Gan was having the extractions, together with implants and grafts performed at Dr. Patel’s Enfield Dental Surgery in Connecticut on Feb. 17 when she became unresponsive.
The two dental assistants present have since told investigators that they begged Dr. Rashmi Patel to stop what he was doing after his patients' vitals kept dropping.
Patel, a practicing dentist in the state for almost 11 years, allegedly refused a first request by his staff to halt the procedure and call 911 and even continued working after Gan had briefly woken up and asked him to stop.

I just had two wisdom teeth removed last week, I can't imagine more than that. Makes my mouth hurt all over again.
I had all four wisdom-teeth removed in one session. Wasn't as horrible as I imagined, but almost. Definitely won't do that again. 
But seriously, I hope that guy gets manslaughter charges and looses his license.
geez
