Man Arrested for Practicing Dentistry

A Long Island man is expected to be arraigned Tuesday on felony counts of unauthorized dentistry practice, and other misdemeanor charges.

Paul Diba performed several dentistry procedures without a license. A Long Island patient went to Diba's office for a root canal, only to have her teeth drilled three times before the correct tooth was found.

Nassau County District Attorney Kathleen Rice said Diba ran a dental office in Roslyn from June 2007 until his arrest on Monday. Rice also said Diba has never been licensed to practice dentistry in New York.
