Abstract
Objectives
To report two cases of litigation following an orthodontic treatment of teeth extraction.
Material and methods
Two cases are reported and analyzed together because they were caused by the same reason, that is the absence of informed consent. The authors describe the medico-legal consequences.
Results and conclusions
Even if the treatment plan was correct and teeth extractions were indicated, this does not represent a valid reason in terms of professional liability, since the extractions were illegal due to the absence of informed consent.
