Ohio dental malpractice expert witnesses review dental records and treatment decisions to clarify whether care met accepted standards. They often are practicing dentists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, endodontists, or periodontists from private practices and Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center–affiliated clinics. In Ohio’s mix of urban and rural dental access, they assess diagnosis, informed consent, anesthesia, infection control, and implant or extraction complications.
