SPISELMAN v. EMPIRE STATE DENTAL GROUP

The evidence supports the jury's conclusion that defendants' malpractice caused her to undergo significant corrective dental work over a period of four years and we conclude that the award for past pain and suffering does not deviate materially from what is reasonable compensation under the circumstances (CPLR 5501 [c]).

Defendants' complaints about a comment made by plaintiff's counsel on summation and a portion of the jury charge were not preserved for appellate review by timely objection on the grounds now raised, and we decline to consider them on this appeal.
