Dental negligence

The Clinical Negligence team at Blake Lapthorn solicitors has successfully pursued many cases of dental negligence and compensation for personal injury has been achieved for our clients.

We have access to independent expertise in this area to provide evidence for cases.  Dental experts can examine your records in detail to determine whether the treatment fell short of all acceptable standards and, if appropriate, prepare reports in support of your compensation claim for negligence.

Dental negligence claims can cover a wide variety of incidents, including:

  • infection
  • loss of sensation
  • taste or smell
  • extraction of teeth
  • insertion of implants

Dental negligence claims are complex and need to be handled by specialists.  At Blake Lapthorn, we have considerable experience in these types of cases with the support of respected independent dental experts and barristers who also specialise in this area.

We understand the wide ranging effects that this type of personal injury has on your life and will ensure that all those factors are taken into account when quantifying your claim, when negotiating settlement on your behalf or preparing the case for trial.

If we are able to secure an admission of liability from the defendant dentist, we will try to obtain an interim payment of damages on your behalf to help with immediate financial burdens and further treatment whilst our investigations are completed and your claim is concluded.
