US oral surgeon accused of pulling wrong teeth while under influence of medications

An oral surgeon has given up his license and sold his practice after he was accused of being under the influence of medications when he pulled the wrong teeth from two patients and operated on the wrong side of a patient's mouth, officials said. The Tulsa World reports 75-year-old Dr. Gary Dean Burnidge voluntarily surrendered his license to the state's dental board last month.
