Types of dental negligence

Compensation for undiagnosed gum disease
If you have experienced dental injury as a result of undiagnosed gum disease (also known as periodontal disease), our specialist dental negligence solicitors are here to help you.
Compensation for undiagnosed mouth cancer
We have a long history of high value claims involving undiagnosed mouth cancer where we have won our clients the compensation they deserved for negligent dental treatment.
Compensation for undiagnosed tooth decay
If diagnosed early enough, tooth decay can be treated with a simple filling. However if your dentist fails to diagnose tooth decay, there can be much more serious consequences.
Dental implant negligence
If you have suffered consequences resulting from negligent dental implants then you should contact The Dental Negligence Team to discuss this further.
Dental nerve injury compensation
Nerve injury can occur due to negligent dental treatment when the trigeminal nerve is disturbed. This nerve is the main nerve responsible for sensation in the face and motor functions.
Negligent cosmetic dentistry
You will have undergone cosmetic dentistry to improve the overall look of your teeth, so it can be distressing if you have been left with failed cosmetic dentistry.
Negligent crown and bridgework
Where a patient has crowns and/or bridges placed, there are a number of ways in which negligent crown and bridgework may be provided.
Negligent Orthodontic Treatment
If you have experienced dental injury in relation to orthodontics, we may be able to help you with a claim for compensation.
Negligent root canal treatment
If you feel that the injury was due to negligence on the part of your dentist, you may have a claim for compensation.
Negligent wisdom teeth extraction
The extraction of wisdom teeth is one of the most common procedures carried out in the UK. Extraction may be required if a wisdom tooth is decayed.
Tooth extraction negligence
If you need an extraction, and the dentist removes the wrong tooth or damages another tooth in the process, then you may have a claim for compensation.
