Dental Negligence Claims

Our teeth not only help us chew and ingest food or help us talk, but give us confidence in our everyday lives. So, putting your smile in the hands of professional takes a lot of trust and any mistake can be a painful and traumatic.

What is Dental Negligence?

Dental negligence is when a healthcare professional has failed to provide adequate care for you. At Freeman Harris, we believe medical staff must treat their patients to their best of their ability.

Our legal team deals with a wide range of dental assist, including:

• Delayed or incorrect diagnosis, including oral cancer diagnosis
• Cosmetic dentistry problems
• Restorative dentistry errors
• Periodontal disease misdiagnosis
• Partial extractions error
• Nerve injury

How can Freeman Harris help you with a negligence claim?

We work in a no win, no fee basis, whether your claim is against NHS or Private care and they caused you harm or suffered whilst under their care. They have a responsibility and our dental negligence solicitors will aid you in gaining your entitled confidence back.

If you have signed consent to dental treatment and concerned that there is no claim for the negligence—guess again, as no one consent to negligent treatment. It is the medical professional’s professional to give you an informed assent of your treatment. Before you consent to the treatment, you, as their patient, must know the reasons for the treatment, risks, and side effects.

Without knowing the risks beforehand and something has gone wrong, you can claim for compensation.

Delay or failure to diagnosis, and provide preventative or oral hygiene advice is a serious matter, especially in the misdiagnosis of oral cancer. It is unfortunate that this happens, and we are here to help you claim for compensation.

You can make dental negligence claims during the three-years from date of knowledge.
