What is a dental malpractice claim? 

A dental malpractice claim is a demand for compensation based on a preventable dental injury. Dentists, oral surgeons and orthodontists all have a legal obligation to perform their jobs with reasonable, competent care. But sometimes, careless error or a lack of adequate knowledge can result in harm. A dental malpractice claim is the response to being the victim of negligence. The victim may recover fair financial compensation under Florida law. They have the right to choose the representation of a dental malpractice attorney. 

Miami Dental Malpractice Cases 

Here are some examples of dental malpractice cases: 

A woman goes to the dentist for a routine filling. The dentist performs the procedure on the wrong tooth. The woman has lasting damage.	An oral surgeon makes an error in administration of anesthesia. As a result, the victim suffers from oxygen deprivation and has long-term complications.	When a patient has a routine dental exam, they show signs of oral cancer. The examining dentist fails to notice the signs of oral cancer. The cancer isn’t treated.
Failing to take reasonable precautions resulted in cross-contamination. A dental patient suffers an infection.	The patient undergoes orthodontic treatment. Unfortunately, the orthodontist doesn’t have the training to prescribe the right course of treatment. The patient has injuries.	A dentist is negligent in the placement of dental implants. Failing to align the implants correctly results in significant pain and the need for more medical treatment.
Because of a lack of care, a dentist makes too large of an incision during wisdom teeth surgery. The patient has delayed healing, follow-up care and needs additional stitches.	A patient shows signs of significant dental complications. A general practice dentist neglects to refer the patient to a specialist.	The dentist assaults or sexually abuses a patient.
