Mrs Hartley - Hampshire
LADY LOSES TOOTH AFTER DENTIST FAILS TO SPOT AND TREAT DECAY
Condition:
Analysis of her dental records revealed that her dentist had failed to spot and treat decay that was clearly visible in X-rays taken as far back as January 2015. Had the dentist treated the decay, Mrs Hartley wouldn’t have suffered from excruciating pain and lost her tooth. It also led to months of avoidable toothache and inconvenience and Mrs Hartley has had to have an implant fitted to fill the gap.
