Dental Negligence Claims

Dental treatment can be a cause of great anxiety, as well as sometimes being very uncomfortable and expensive. However, it’s fair to think that we are in safe hands when on the dentist chair, as we are being looked after by someone who sees large numbers of patients every single working day.

Unfortunately, dental treatment can go wrong and mistakes can be made with painful consequences. It is in this situation that dental negligence claims can be made against the medical professional responsible. At PIC Claim, we are here to assist you through this process. Claim Compensation Now.

Dental Negligence Compensation

Dental negligence can happen in a number of ways, and generally means you leave the dentist surgery in more pain than you were before. Of course this is sometimes natural, but when the pain is not a temporary measure it’s clear that something is not quite right.

Being rather pricey, we expect our dentist to deliver the highest standard of care, with results that will benefit our oral health for the foreseeable future. However, mistakes can be made that are beyond our control; often resulting in a nasty personal injury. With dental treatment, mistakes often require further work to fix, which, when your confidence has been knocked following a mistake, can be a cause of high stress and nervousness.

The main ways in which dental negligence can have an affect on your life include:

  • Carrying out poor quality dental treatment
  • Making careless mistakes during dental treatment
  • Misdiagnosis of dental work required

Poor quality treatment includes inadequate work which could have been avoided. Examples of this include not completing a root canal properly, or failing to implement the correct orthodontic care. This can either happen on a one off basis or over a period of time.

Careless mistakes can include cutting the patient’s cheek or tongue with a sharp instrument, dropping an object down their throat or taking out the wrong tooth during an extraction. Misdiagnosis of dental work is where the wrong course of treatment has been administered, or a problem that the dentist decides needs sorting is not actually the cause of the problem at all. This can also include failing to notice a problem and it subsequently getting worse and more painful over time.

All of these examples would mean a claim for dental negligence compensation could be made. At PIC Claim we understand that taking the step to starting a compensation claim is a daunting one, and this is why we provide ongoing support to you from the beginning to end of the process.
