Opinion
Argued February 9, 2001
March 12, 2001.
In an action to recover damages for dental malpractice, the plaintiff appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Hall, J.), entered December 14, 1999, which, upon a jury verdict, is in favor of the defendant and against him dismissing the complaint.
McKenna, Siracusano, Fehringer Chianese, East Rockaway, N Y (Marc R. Leffler of counsel), for appellant.
Greenfield Hastings, Jericho, N.Y. (John F. Hastings and Stephen Knudsen of counsel), for respondent.
Before: CORNELIUS J. O'BRIEN, J.P., FRED T. SANTUCCI, ANITA R. FLORIO, ROBERT W. SCHMIDT, JJ.
DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, with costs.
The Supreme Court properly exercised its discretion in denying the plaintiff's motion to preclude testimony of the defendant's expert witness (see, People v. Santana, 80 N.Y.2d 92, 100).
The plaintiff's remaining contention is without merit.
