Phoenix Dental Malpractice Attorney
What is Dental Malpractice?
When we see a dentist we expect that they have the education, knowledge and skill to properly care for our teeth. When a dentist is negligent and fails to provide adequate care then it may be considered medical malpractice. Dental injuries can lead to a lifetime of discomfort and pain. In addition, if a medication error, surgical error or misdiagnosis occurs a person may face life threatening consequences.
There are many ways to experience dental malpractice and negligence. Below are a few of those ways:
- Personal injury to the oral cavity or surrounding bone and/or tissue
- Failure to properly detect an oral disease or malformation
- Improper utilization of dental or surgical utensils
- Installation of defective or shoddy dental products
- Performing unnecessary dental procedures to collect higher insurance compensations
- Wrongful death due to dental procedures or anesthetic
