Arkansas Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons Breach Exposes Patient Records

Two terabytes of sensitive patient information, including Social Security numbers and private health records, now circulate on the dark web following an April ransomware attack against Arkansas Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons. The breach, attributed to a hacker collective known as PEAR, has triggered a formal investigation by Poynter Law Group.

The incident, which occurred on April 7, 2026, remained undisclosed until recent filings with the Massachusetts Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation revealed the scope of the compromise. Exposed data encompasses a broad range of personal identifiers, from financial documentation and home addresses to specific medical history records.

Poynter Law Group is currently gathering information from affected patients to evaluate potential legal recourse. Individuals who received formal notification of the breach or suspect their data was compromised are encouraged to reach out to the firm at (501) 812-3943 or via their online contact portal.
