Mr. Puschak first noticed Chris’s tooth 3 cavity on April 28" 2016, He never mentioned to the patient and the patient’s parents; his negligent work to Christopher’s tooth 3 at the beginning directly led his tooth 3 missing! now Mr. Puschak made Christopher’s tooth 3 missing as well! He planned to extract the tooth 3 for bigger money. (His treatment note) COUNT II (Malpractice and Sexual Assault to Susan Cheung) 12. Without considering the health situation of Susan Cheung, Mr. Puschak performed low quality “deep cleaning”, caused patient’s effecting and bleeding gum on health. “If your gums or an area of gum feels painful, tender, swollen, or you notice a strange taste, plus or blood in your mouth, it increased my blood pressure, cholesterol and sugar level. Mr. and Mrs. Puschak do this for money. Mrs. Puschak disturbed Susan Cheung in every occasion with deep cleaning text reminder. 13. Dental care is out of standard care, Mr. and Mrs. Puschak cheated on money illegally from both Delta Dental and Patients and used the way lure Susan bring her son there. Mr. Puschak knew children’s psychology, as Mr. Puschak’s father was pediatrician. so, he was taking advantage of Christopher as Christopher was a minor and just lost his father with sudden heart attack. Mr. Puschak knew how to cheat on children to make their teeth missing, abuse children and destroy their life when they are just children or teenagers. 14. After Susan fired Mr. Puschak in 2019, for 3 years; Susan’s health recovered back, she has Export opinion that Susan Cheung’s teeth only require regular cleaning, it is within limit without gum problem nor disease. 15. On April 28th 2016 and Jan 17th 2017, Thomas Puschak worked on Susan Cheung’s teeth, Thomas Puschak worked on Susan’s teeth, fill cavities and deep cleaning, do a cap. During the anesthesia. He took advantage of putting his hands into Susan’s cloths, improperly brush my neck, back, front, breasts and my body, told Susan relax, sexual assaulted Susan. Thomas Puschak later shifted his abusive and sexual assault to my son, who was a minor (15 years old) at the time.16. Mr. Puschak ordered Susan to do deep cleaning as other dentists said that Susan’s teeth condition does not need deep cleaning, Susan does not have gum disease. The reason that Mr. Puschak did this is because He wanted to sexual harass and insult Susan, at the same time, abuse my son, to remove his teeth illegally for money!!! 17. Mr. Puschak also asked his wife Carol to text Susan multiple times before each visit, they loved Susan to go there frequently, so that they can harass and insult Susan; also Mr. Puschak loves to abuse my son physically and mentally, sexual harass Christopher when he was minor. 18. Every time, Susan came to Mr. Puschak’s office to do dental work, Mr. Puschak seemed already ready and waited there, Always When Susan just came in. Mr. Puschak would be chasing and Stalking, inappropriate touching Susan, and asking Susan for money, He also threatens me that He knew everything of me, Mrs. Puschak told me that they have guns in their office, and that I must pay him money right away. Sometimes, the way that His gesture to talk to me was also very insulting. He always lowers down his back, and use his ass to face me, and talk about "the dental procedure, dental needs and money I owed him". And something like” Your son should come to see me every week”. And He also turn his tone in the mouth, and use his hands wrap in front his face, everything that Susan talked to Mr. Puschak about the treatment of Christopher’s teeth, He said that all the teeth were rotten, and laugh at me, this made me very uncomfortable and confused!!! 19. | am afraid the force and He attracted my son to only see him for dental work, I am afraid that He would hurt my son if I did not pay him money immediately, not listen to him. Mr. Puschak harassed and assaulted me multiple times. ( Note: I is Susan Cheung ) COUNT III (Child Pedophiles, Abuse and Damage Christopher Cheung’s life) 20. Christopher went to see Mr. Puschak for dental care from April 28" 2016 to Oct .27 2020. Mr. Puschak knew that Chrsitopher lost his dad when He was 13 years old. Mr. Puschak pretended to be very nice to Christopher, and very concerned about Christopher without Dad situation, but Mr. Puschak settled down Christopher with a Child is a child abuser, molester and sex offender. Mr. Puschak showed unusual interest and skills to children. Mr. Puschak’s father was a pediatrician, so Mr. Puschak had plenty of experience to dela with under age children to hurt their life. Mr. Puschak noticed the cavity of Christopher’s tooth 3, He never mentioned to Christopher’s Mom, and He already decided to do negligent to make Christopher’s tooth 3 missing, He already planned to destroy Christopher’s heath, making advantage of minors. 21. He made use of the opportunity to abuse Christopher, instructed wrong way by his wife carol (She is not licensed with anything) to make Christopher’s gumbleeding, Mr. Puschak does not have dental practice standard, Puschak told me” As long as you brushed your teeth, your gum is bleeding, that is the right way to keep your oral hygiene good, satisfy his expectation!” He and his wife run his dirty dental clinic, they discriminated and abused Christopher, sexual harassed Christopher in his dental practice. Then they cheated to Susan and told her differently. 22. Puschak criticizes Christopher’s oral hygiene as Mr. Puschak knew that Christopher lost his dad and Mr. Puschak can cheat on Christopher and Susan. Mr. Puschak planned and was intending to do Root Canal for every tooth of Christopher, then not install permanent crowns, waited until they were missing, Puschak’s logic and plan is as long as he made notes about, Christopher did not brush teeth, that would cause teeth cavity, every time Christopher visited Mr. Puschak, Mr. Puschak acted as He had fished a big fish for money (AS Chris was a minor), He spent 3, 4+ hours, root canal and root canal again, He improperly touched me and abused me. Mr. Puschak was proudly to say that They liked” his skills”, it meant that Puschak did not do anything wrong, out of standard care. He can extract it later and implant for money! Puschak is very good at abusing and sexual assault, harassing children under age, like me when I was 15 years old!!! Especially we have delta dental PPO benefit, I personally had become a fat and vulnerable target for Puschaks to prey and abuse. 23. When Puschak did the root canal, Puschak did anesthesia and put rubber dam on me, He started his hand to go underneath my cloths, to touch me improperly, and groped me at some point when only he was with me. At the beginning, when He did root canal on Christopher’s tooth 19, Susan spotted Mr. Puschak groped Christopher (like intentionally when he did x ray on Christopher etc.), and Later Mr. and Mrs. Puschak strictly refused Susan to go to closing to the Christopher’s dental chair, they restricted Susan to wait at the front desk, or tell her that they did not allow her to stay at their dental office. This cause serious damage to Christopher’s life, it made him depressed, and had problems to social friends and studied in school. 24, Mr. Puschak never did impression after each root canal, He never ordered a permanent crown, so He was never intended to fix the cavity, he is intended to use root canal as a powerful tool to make all my teeth missing, the tooth after root canal is very fragile without nerves, it needs to be installed permanent crown as soon as possible, Another way is playing negligent, like he found that my tooth 3 has cavity in 2016, He just ignored it until it became missing, then Puschak in histreatment plan to write that it needs to be extracted and implanted for big money for him! Puschak is malpractice and abusive, sex offender to children! 25, Christopher went here and got severe damaged in life was proven that Puschak was eager to do root canal for every tooth of mine, but not do impression, install permanent crowns afterwards for all my teeth: All the dentists do root canal once thoroughly, otherwise the nerve still there, Patients would not able to eat or sleep, but Puschak did my root canal teeth multiple times for temporary crown!; He made me expose to X ray radiation, He used rubber dam to make me chock, not breath without my mother’s knowledge and consent when I was 15 years old and later on. He touched my body improperly, sexual harassed and assaulted me. He contacted me, recorded my phones number without My mom and my consent He asked his no licensed wife to show how to brush teeth to me all the time, Puschak never showed me nor did to me by himself! then He tried to make my gum bleeding and sexual harassed me and abused me! (Note: I is Christopher) COUNT IV (Fraud Claim to Insurance company, disturb our Insurance, Collect Fraud money and refuse to correct to Delta Dental Insurance Company. Also Cheated on Health Advocate) 26 Mr. Puschak and Mrs. Puschak filed 3+ time to Delta Dental to claim fraud money by exchanging the invalid code for Root Canal procedures for both tooth 10 and tooth 7, He never did the impression, nor ordered permanent crown, Mr. Puscak was intended to make Christopher’s tooth missing (Chris was a minor at all the time when Mr. Puschak did it! , Mr. Puschak did this fraud skim in almost every work to Christopher at the time He was a minor) 27. As Mr. Puschak did the root canal only to Christopher’s tooth 7 on Feb 1% 2018, Mr. and Mrs. Puschak filed multiple claims for Root canal for tooth 7, after they collected root canal money, and then their fake code got declined by Delta Dental, they filed another fraud claim on Oct 19" 2018, claimed the Mr. Puschak did Tanium and Tanium alloyed crown on Feb 1* 2018 for Christopher’s tooth 7, and collected both fraud money from Delta Dental and patient. 28.

During the time Christopher saw Thomas Puschak, from 04/28/2016 to 10/25/2019; 3 years, Puschak sold Christopher 14 Sodium Fluoride 1.1% toothpaste, and charged $15 each time, Puschak told Christopher and emphasized to only use his fluoride 1.1% toothpaste exclusively, do not use any other toothpastes, but use it not following the direction on the label instruction on the toothpaste box, use 10,20 times more than the label instructed, and leave the toothpaste on teeth, not rinse. Doctor ChuanJun Wu, as well as Children’s poison control hotline also told Susan that it is very dangerous if you do not follow the directions on the label of the toothpaste box and can get poisoned! Especially for children it is restricted. As we all know Fluorite is a poison element, it can cause bone cancer and cancers, and heart diseases! a little amount into the body could cause serious health concerns and problems for a long lifetime! Thinking about the time when | was 15 years old only, it was a poisonous control issue! This is especially true to children (Poison control problems); The time Thomas Puschak instructed me to leave fluoride on my teeth just contradict with poison control guidelines for children. Puschak never told me about the health issue even when | was 15 years old, irresponsible and negligent, When | just turned 13 years old, | lost my dad, He suddenly left us with heart attack, when | first saw Thomas Puschak on April 28" 2016, He asked, so | told him about my dad. Thomas Puschak thought that this was a wonderful opportunity for hurting me, so that He intended to make my teeth missing, even when the temporary crown on my tooth 19 fell, | went to see him on Oct 27" 2020, He wrote the prescription and was going to extract Christopher's teeth, and implanting them with big 5 digits money!
