DENTAL HYGIENIST LOSES LICENSE FOR HAVING SEX WITH A PATIENT – HIS WIFE

A dental hygienist in Guelph, Ontario, lost his license because he had sex with one of his dental patients. The patient he had sex with was his fiancée. Alexandru Tanase lost his license on September 9 after a complaint to the College of Dental Hygienists of Ontario. He’s also been labelled as a sexual abuser by the college. Tanase’s fiancée – who’s now his wife – went to him to have her teeth cleaned. He cleaned his wife’s teeth several times over the course of a year, from April 2015 until August 2016. At one point, they took a photo together. Somebody in the office saw the photo online and reported him. Tanase argues that if he was a dentist and had done the same thing, or if he had been practicing in another province, there would have been no consequences. He says that dentists in Ontario and dental hygienists in every province but Ontario and New Brunswick are exempt from this rule.
* Time to move to one of those naughtier provinces, like Saskatchewan.
* He didn’t just clean her teeth. There was also a lot of drilling.
* “I’m going to scrape off your plaque, and I’d also like to give you an implant.”
* Yes, this is incredibly unfair, but maybe we shouldn’t be POSTING PICTURES OF EVERYTHING WE DO ON THE INTERNET.
* At least he’s still filling her cavity at home.
