Caution
-
As a result of its investigation of a formal complaint, the Inquiries, Complaints and Reports Committee decided to caution Dr. Michael Cohen as follows: • Treatment plans should be supported by the appropriate diagnosis. Dr. Cohen should not splint a patient’s teeth without diagnostic evidence to support such a treatment because of the material risks involved. • When placing a splint, Dr. Cohen should ensure that an embrasure space is maintained between the patient’s teeth to allow food to pass through when chewing and to allow for proper cleaning. • Dr. Cohen must document diagnostic notes in the patient record, including a periodontal assessment, to support the treatment performed. • Dr. Cohen must include a treatment plan in the patient record that includes the details of all the treatment he intends to perform. • Dr. Cohen must obtain informed consent prior to treatment. In order for consent to be informed, the dentist must provide the patient with certain information: the diagnosis or problem noted, nature and purpose of the proposed treatment along with the risks and benefits of such treatment, the treatment alternatives available along with the associated risks and benefits, the likely consequences of not having the treatment, and the cost of each treatment option. Consent, whether verbal or written, must be documented in the patient record. • Dr. Cohen must ensure he uses the correct billing codes for all treatment performed, and specifically, when he places a splint, he should not bill for a restoration.
