What Is Dental Negligence?
Dental negligence occurs when a dentist, orthodontist or other dental professional fails to meet the accepted standard of care, resulting in injury, discomfort or avoidable complications. Like other healthcare professionals, dental practitioners have a legal duty to provide care that is competent, safe and appropriate.
Common examples of dental negligence include:
- Incorrect or delayed diagnosis of oral disease or infection
- Poorly performed procedures, such as root canals, extractions, crowns or implants
- Nerve damage during treatment causing long-term pain or numbness
- Inadequate sterilisation leading to infection
- Unnecessary procedures or treatment performed without informed consent
- Failure to obtain medical history, leading to complications during treatment
If any of these situations sound familiar, we can help you determine whether you have a valid claim.
Who Can Make a Dental Negligence Claim Dublin?
If you’ve been harmed because of negligent dental treatment, you might be entitled to compensation. This applies to people of all ages both adults and children, though claims for minors must be made by a parent or guardian. If the dental care you received fell below acceptable standards, you have the right to seek compensation.
Dental negligence doesn’t just affect your physical health, it can also take an emotional and psychological toll, impacting your confidence and overall wellbeing. We understand how distressing it is to endure pain or disfigurement from a procedure that was meant to help, and we’re here to provide guidance and support every step of the way.
What Can I Claim For?
If dental negligence is established, you may be entitled to compensation covering a range of losses, such as:
- Pain and suffering, both physical and emotional
- Corrective treatment, to fix damage caused by the initial error
- Loss of earnings
due to time off work or reduced ability to work
- Medical or dental expenses including consultations, medications and follow-ups
- Ongoing care needs in cases of long-term damage
- Loss of quality of life including psychological effects such as anxiety or embarrassment
We work closely with dental experts to quantify the full impact of your injuries and ensure your compensation reflects your actual losses.
