Judge Wentworth Considers Grant Versus Massell Dentist

In Municipal Court Judge Wentworth heard Ernest C. Grant's suit against dentist Joseph Massell. Grant alleges two teeth were extracted for $2, but claims broken teeth and severe gum injury caused pain, blood loss, and a doctor visit after drinking two brandies. Experts dispute the wound size and method, noting a crowbar like instrument called an elevator could have been used.
