Dental Negligence
Having dental treatment can be an
unnerving experience. Despite high standards there are thousands of
examples each year of people suffering both physically and mentally
from experiences in the dentists chair.

Dental negligence
Unfortunately dentists are not infallible.
They make mistakes and side effects can occur from dental treatment
which in some cases is unavoidable.
Furthermore unlike other
professions dentists can not undo many of the errors that are made.
Once a tooth is removed there is no turning back. Once teeth
are damaged due to a lack of skill or care they may never be the
same again.
The Dental Negligence
Team at Hugh James is experienced in investigating whether such
damage and side effects are unfortunate or whether they have
occurred through negligence.
In recent years many more claims have been
brought in respect of sub-standard dental treatment, whether the
treatment was provided privately or on the NHS.
Common causes of dental negligence
include:
- Failure to diagnose longstanding periodontal (gum) disease
- Negligently installed bridgework and crowns
- Inappropriate root canal treatments
- Extraction of the wrong tooth
