Hello. I am Roxanne, former patient of Dentist Dr. Yuri E. Grishko, DDS. On this website, I will document how Dr. Yuri Grishko has injured me (Dental Malpractice).
Dr. Yuri E. Grishko DDS ("Wheeling Dental") is a State-certified Dentist and member of the following Dental Associations:

After extensive dealing with Dr. Grishko, I am convinced that he possesses superior persuasive skills.
Dr. Yuri E. Grishko's "Wheeling Dental" Office (Wheeling, IL USA)
In July 2008, I visited Dr. Yuri Grishko's office for an evaluation. I brought my expensive panoramic X-Rays. I did not object ~2 hours for total travel.
I've visited several U.S. Dentists and their standard evaluation procedure was:
Dr. Yuri Grishko performed a non-standard evaluation procedure:
Dr. Yuri Grishko refused to install a crown on my healthy root. Instead, the Doctor pushed for immediate extraction of my bottom-right "rotten tooth."
My Husband and I were shocked by Dr. Yuri Grishko's statements. My previous Dentists meticulously strengthened this tooth and convinced me that it would serve for future crown installation. We were completely against this tooth extraction and begged Dr. Grishko to reconsider.
But Dr. Yuri Grishko was adamant about tooth extraction. He spent one hour convincing my Husband that this "100% rotten" tooth would be extracted in minutes.
The reality was completely different:
The following nights, I could not sleep at all. My Husband comforted me as much as he could. I constantly cried to him: "Several Dentists diligently worked on this tooth! I planned to have a crown there. Why did Dr. Grishko do this?"
We then contacted Dr. Yuri Grishko and asked him to return my original panoramic X-Ray Film Set. But, Dr. Grishko used his superior persuasive skills to diffuse my suspicions.
On the following visit (July 2008), Dr. Yuri Grishko promised to install 2 different crowns on bottom-right prepared teeth.
During my next visit (July 2008), Dentist Grishko promised to install two adjacent crowns in the bottom right corner of the mouth. Two months earlier, the porcelain crown on one tooth splintered. The other adjacent tooth was cracked and needed an urgent crown.
Dr. Grishko did not perform any preliminary work:
Under Dentist Grishko's supervision, Chief Associate Irina installed a double crown on these two teeth.
I visited Dr. Yuri Grishko's office and asked him to fulfill our agreement about 2 separate crowns. But, Dr. Yuri Grishko said the following:
Once again, Dr. Grishko used his superior persuasive skills to diffuse my concerns. I trusted Dr. Grishko's detailed evaluation and decided not to dismantle the existing double-crown.
In August 2008, my Husband and I visited Dr. Grishko's office to install my upper-left tooth crown.
Then Dr. Grishko's Chief Associate Irina applied mold on my tooth. The mold completely hardened. Later, Associate Jenny tried to separate the hardened mold, but failed. Finally, she asked Dr. Yuri Grishko for help. For the next one hour Dr. Grishko forcefully tried to separate this mold from my tooth. He used all tools in his arsenal to slowly dismantle the mold.
I was reclined horizontally on the patient chair and my neck was unnaturally twisted to the rightmost limit. In the background I noticed Associate Irina standing, with a visible broad smile. During this entire operation, I did not feel any compassion from Dr. Grishko!
At last, I went into the lobby, exhausted and about to faint. Associate Irina was sitting at the reception desk. She quickly grabbed the remaining patient in the lobby and they swiftly left. No one from Dr. Yuri Grishko's office came to help me. My Husband had to jump in and slowly guide me into the car.
In the car I told my Husband: "I felt great pain all this time. Dr. Yuri Grishko nearly extracted my live tooth! My neck still hurts badly."
This has had an enormous long-lasting effect on my upper-jaw. To this day I can't eat on that side without great pain.
My Husband, a professional Research Scientist, provided a theory for this event. The dental mold consists of two ingredients: gum and hardener. The Associate must mix specific proportions of these ingredients. If s/he adds too much hardener, the gum (mold) is swiftly transformed into concrete-like substance.
One year later, I sensed that Dr. Grishko's double-crown was no longer stable. Then, in November 2009, Dr. Grishko's double-crown fell off! See photo of the damaged crown below:
My new Dentist discovered the following:
My Dentist was then forced to perform an emergency surgery.
I demanded Dr. Yuri Grishko to return my previous Dentist's Panoramic X-Ray Film Set. To this day, Dr. Grishko has categorically refused to surrender it.
In September 2008 my Husband and I visited Dr. Grishko's office to pickup my original Panoramic X-Ray Film Set. But Dr. Yuri Grishko claimed the X-rays were at his "home"!
One week later, we contacted him to reschedule the pickup date. Dr. Yuri Grishko said: "I have already returned the X-rays via mail."
One week later we received the following items:
Contents of Dr. Yuri Grishko's "returned X-rays" mailed package
My Husband and I have tried to convince Dr. Yuri Grishko to obey Hippocratic Oath. But Dr. Yuri Grishko has stonewalled all of our attempts and refused to respond to our multiple phone calls, letters and faxes.
On April 8, 2009 we contacted Dr. Grishko to speedily resolve these issues. In our letter, we set up a 30-day deadline to reach an agreement. Otherwise, we would be forced to make this issue public.
Just before the deadline, we received a letter from Attorney Michael B. Brohman of Kamensky Rubinstein Hochman & Delott, LLP. Attorney Michael B. Brohman demanded that we "Cease-and-Desist" all communications with Dr. Grishko and shutdown this future website.
We contacted Attorney Michael B. Brohman and demanded that Dr. Yuri Grishko surrender my original Panoramic X-Rays Film Set on specific date.
My Husband and Son tried to pickup my property from Attorney Michael B. Brohman's office. When they arrived, Attorney Michael B. Brohman was highly aggressive and threatened them with a lawsuit.
My Husband and Son asked Attorney Brohman to surrender my original Panoramic X-Rays Film Set. He refused to surrender the items and demanded they sign off on a package of "medical records."
They asked: "Does this package contain Roxanne's original Panoramic X-Rays Film Set?"
Attorney Brohman said: "No. Dr. Grishko only provided printed copies of Roxanne's digital X-Rays."
My Husband and son did not to pick up this package.
We obliged to Attorney Brohman's "Cease-and-Desist" demands. Per U.S. Laws, we demand that Dr. Grishko's Attorney Michael B. Brohman surrender my original property in-person only.
Dentist Dr. Yuri Grishko has injured me and stole my X-Rays (Dental Malpractice). I spent $3,000+ on Dr. Yuri Grishko's dental services and here is what I received:
