An example of a routine procedure going awry. Seems like the dentist should be responsible for this. Drill bit not tightened into the collet properly?

Surely the insurance companies will work it out.

As a retired dentist I can say that undoubtedly the dentist is responsible. That’s why we carry liability insurance.
