During implant surgery Dr. Tu had the drill in reverse in my jawbone. He was made aware of this fact after he had put extreme pressure on the drill causing my head to be angled way up with my chin level with my shoulder. The dental assistant told him of the drill in reverse, it was a bit difficult for Dr. Tu to figure drill reverse and forward on his own. After this fiasco Dr. Tu stopped drilling and called in his associate Dr. Kuhn to at which time Dr. Tu told Dr. Kuhn, "Dr. Thomsen must have done that." Being that they had laid heavy gauze over my eyes, who knows. Maybe Allen Thomsen the general dentist actually did do the oral surgery,, even though I had insisted more that once that Dr. Harold Tu the oral surgeon do the entire procedure. So Dr. Tu placed the implants into my injured jawbone anyway. Now one implant has loosened up and fell out. The other 2 are holding on by very little bone. After this procedure I asked Dr Tu why he had the drill in reverse, and his response was. "if you had been asleep", and he walked out of the room. I thought the bone would grow back. He knew it would not, now all implants are loose and falling out. The XRay taken after 6 mos. of healing of the implant site has been denied to me.
