Types of dental negligence

Compensation for undiagnosed gum disease

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.
