Dental Negligence || INDEPENDENT MEDICAL AGENCY

What is
Dental Negligence?

Dental negligence occurs when a dentist or dental professional fails to provide the proper standard of care, resulting in injury, discomfort, or unnecessary complications for the patient.

Common examples include:

Failure to diagnose or treat gum disease properly
Errors during cosmetic or implant procedures
Incorrect or delayed diagnosis
Negligent dental work resulting in nerve or jaw injury
Loss of teeth due to improper treatment
Cosmetic procedures leading to pain or poor results

If you’ve suffered because of negligent dental care, you may be eligible to claim compensation for your pain, suffering, and financial losses.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you’ve suffered pain, discomfort, or financial loss because of poor dental treatment, IMA can help you find out if you’re entitled to compensation. One of IMA’s trusted solicitors will contact you to discuss the legal process and their experts will assess your eligibility – all without any upfront cost.

To strengthen your case, you may need dental records, photographs of the affected area, proof of additional expenses, and any communication with your dentist. IMA’s legal partners will guide you through gathering the right evidence step by step.

Yes. Whether your treatment was through the NHS or a private clinic, you still have the same right to expect professional care. If that standard wasn’t met, IMA can help you start a claim regardless of where the treatment occurred.

At IMA, we frequently see cases involving:

Avoidable loss of a tooth or wrongful extraction
Nerve injuries during treatment
Cosmetic or implant failures
Undiagnosed gum disease or oral condition
Delayed or incorrect treatment leading to pain or further damage

If any of these sound familiar, you could be entitled to compensation.

The amount varies depending on your specific circumstances — including pain, suffering, and the cost of corrective treatment. IMA works with experienced legal professionals who aim to recover every penny you deserve.

Most dental negligence claims are resolved within several months, though complex cases can take longer. Our trusted Solicitors ensure that your case progresses efficiently.

No. Most of the solicitors we work with operate on a No Win, No Fee basis — meaning you won’t pay a penny unless your claim is successful.
