A man is suing a Chicago dentist who he asserts failed to properly diagnose and treat gum disease.
David M. Gryczewski filed a lawsuit March 4 in Cook County Circuit Court against Dr. Curt R. Lang and his dental practice Curt R. Lang D.D.S. Ltd.
According to the complaint, Gryczewski was a patient of Lang’s between 1987 and 2013, during which time he alleges Lang failed to diagnose, monitor or treat periodontal disease.
