During a scanning procedure using a 3m true definition scanner, a patient experienced a shock and pain inside the mouth. It was confirmed that the power outlet, where the scanner was connected at the time the incident occurred, was not properly grounded. After the scanner was plugged into the power outlet where the ground was proven to be wired and functioning properly, no more shocks occurred. The dentist was advised of the investigation findings and agreed that the incident was caused by the faulty power outlet at the office; an electrician was called and fixed all power outlets in the office.
