Grant Olson, DDS, of Springfield-based Innovative Dental, made a YouTube video Nov. 3 speaking out against snap-on veneers, saying they are unregulated and cause significant damage to teeth, among other claims.
Bil Watson, owner of Fort Worth, Texas-based Brighter Image Lab, which makes snap-on veneers, filed a federal lawsuit against the dentist alleging defamation and slander. He is seeking an injunction on the video and monetary damages.
A representative from Innovative Dental declined to discuss the lawsuit with the news organization.
Becker’s has contacted Dr. Olson’s office for comment and will update this story as more information becomes available.
