No- you paid him to operate on you. You could try, unless you told him to stop, you will not get anywhere.
Answer:
It depends on a number of factors.
First, did the dentist have your permission to remove your teeth? If you signed something called "informed consent" which discussed the reasonable potential complications, then he probably did have permission to remove your teeth.
Second, did he perform the surgery to the standard of care? That is, did he perform the surgery in a manner that a reasonable, prudent practitioner would exercise in the same or similar circumstances? This is usually determined by consulting recognized experts in the field of dentistry. They are called expert witnesses, and they are quite expensive.
Third, can you demonstrate that you were harmed, either physically or financially, as a result of the dentist's actions?
In short, unless you can demonstrate that the dentist did something wrong, or did not act in your best interests, you probably do not have a case that is winnable.
