Negligent Dentist Drops Tools Down Elderly Man’s Throat

Posted by mbrickley | Posted in Medical Malpractice, Neglect

In Winter Park, Fla., a family has pressed charges against a dentist for allegedly dropping dental tools down the throat of their 90-year-old family member - twice.

According to a Chicago Tribune article, Dr. Wesley Meyers dropped an implant screwdriver down Charles Geal Jr.’s throat in 2006 and a mini-wrench in 2007. After several invasive surgeries to remove the tools, Geal never fully recovered. He died in 2007, but there is no known direct correlation with the dental mishaps.

Meyers was fined by the state for his mistakes, and was found negligent - but now the family is seeking more compensation. To drop anything down a patient’s throat beyond the point of recovering it is awful - but to do it twice is even worse.

An injury lawyer is representing Geal’s family in this personal injury lawsuit.
