Posted on Jul 3, 2010 1:40pm PDT
A West Virginia woman has filed a dental malpractice lawsuit alleging that she suffered a jaw-related injury because the dental office failed to ask whether or not she had taken the osteoporosis drug Fosamax. The drug reportedly weakens the jaw bone and makes it susceptible to severe and debilitating complications following procedures. The dental office is furthermore being sued because the plaintiff is accusing them of trying to cover up the mistake. The woman claims that the office never made a proper inquiry of her medical history before performing work on her.
