Bringing a Claim
Dental Conditions
Dental Procedures
In recent years, many more claims have been brought in respect of sub-standard dental treatment, whether private or NHS.
At Withy King we have a dedicated dental injury unit, whose members understand the terminology, procedures and complexities of the issues involved. We have the relevant medical and legal knowledge and contacts, to ensure that your case is thoroughly investigated.
Sometimes the issues are straightforward, but this is a complex area and opinions can differ about the wisdom of treatment that has been undertaken. The majority of claims in this area must be investigated in detail, and often an expert opinion will be necessary at an early stage. We have the benefit of the expertise of a practising Dental Surgeon to advise us as to whether a claim seems possible.
We have dealt with a wide range of dental cases, including the following:
- Failure to diagnose longstanding periodontal (gum) disease
- Negligently installed bridgework
- Ill-advised removal of mercury fillings
- Failure to treat decay over a long period
- Inappropriate root canal treatments
Whatever your concern about your dental treatment, you can be sure that our specialist team of experienced solicitors will deal with you and any claim you might have sympathetically. Please contact us to discuss whether you have a claim. We offer a free initial interview in which we will tell you if your case deserves further investigation. Alternatively, complete and submit our short online form for a free initial assessment.
