Several different questions.
Technically, "Esq." when used in America means "lawyer," so if your ex is in fact a lawyer, it is a proper title, like "Dr." If he is not a lawyer, it not legitimate to do so, although it is hard to imagine anyone prosecuting such a misrepresentation unless he was using it to defraud someone out of money, etc.
As to whether he is or is not responsible for dental bills, it depends on the underlying court order, and facts. Normally, medically necessary medical procedures are split between the parents. Consult your written order, and then consider seeing a family law specialist. Meantime, some background is posted at http://willicklawgroup.com/child-support/.
