A 35-year-old man in Perm, Russia, has died following a wisdom tooth extraction at a dental clinic. The incident has prompted a criminal investigation into potential negligence.
The man, who leaves behind two children and family, sought dental care due to acute tooth pain and underwent surgery to remove a wisdom tooth. His condition rapidly deteriorated following the procedure, ultimately leading to his death in a hospital.
A criminal case has been initiated under the article addressing death by negligence. Alexander Bastrykin, Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia, has requested a detailed report on the investigation’s progress and the circumstances surrounding the man’s death.
Reports suggest the man may have developed sepsis and spent over a week on a ventilator before passing away. While the investigation is ongoing, a friend suggested a possible connection to a recent tick-borne encephalitis vaccination received the day before the dental procedure.
