What is dental negligence?

See if you have a case for dental negligence:

£9,000 Awarded in compensation

It was heart breaking to know that I would ultimately lose my other tooth even after the needed procedures to preserve it. I was told that the extraction of my other tooth could have been avoided if my dentist had treated the tooth decay earlier. Mr M from South East

Injury

Analysis of his dental records revealed that Dr H had consistently failed to diagnose and treat tooth decay between 2015 and 2016. All this led to the problems Mr M experienced and to him losing his tooth in the future.

Resolution

The Dental Law Partnership took on Mr M’s case in 2017. The case was successfully settled in 2020 when the dentist paid £9,000 in an out of court settlement. The dentist did not admit liability.

Stress Awareness Month: Stress Related to Dental Negligence

A common worry we see time and time again surrounding our dental negligence claim patients, is the mental toll the injury caused by dental negligence can take. It is at the most vulnerable of times that we put faith into dental professionals who are experts in their fields of work, we trust their diagnosis, their judgement of the symptoms, and we trust the treatment they provide is always going to be industry standard. We do not consider that this trust may be misplaced, or that things may go wrong.
