Neil Crossley, Head of Clinical Negligence for Bolton, discusses a recent case where our client had experienced dental negligence, resulting in tooth loss that could have been prevented.
Background
Mrs A* had complained of an unpleasant taste in her mouth, tooth sensitivity to brushing and touch, and some movement of certain teeth, which prompted her to visit her usual dental practice for an appointment. Over the course of the following years, she was advised that extraction of certain teeth was the best course of action to combat the issues that had been identified. After undergoing many years of treatment, which involved multiple dental extractions, Mrs A’s oral health continued to suffer, although no treatment plan was instigated, other than extraction, and this began to impact her confidence and quality of life.
