negligence and a dental negligence claim can also be pursued should you have been injured due to negligence by your dentist or other dental practitioner. Medical negligence encompasses substandard treatment. This can include inadequate llings, root canal treatments or crowns. The incorrect tting of dental implants or failed implants, nerve damage, removal of a healthy teeth incorrectly or when it was not required or failing to offer an alternative treatment such as a root canal treatment procedure before considering tooth extraction. If there’s a delay in diagnosis leading to suffering an injury (such as delay in treating tooth decay or gum disease, abscesses, periodontal disease and oral cancer) then you are able to pursue a dental negligence claim. Poor long-term care over extended periods of time may result in the onset of issues such as premature tooth decay or periodontal disease. This is also dental negligence in which you can pursue a dental negligence claim.

Making a Medical Negligence Claim To make a medical negligence claim, you only have 3 years to issue Court Proceedings. This is from the rst date that you knew about suffering from an injury caused by the fault of a medical practitioner or could reasonably have been expected to know. This could be from the time that the injury occurred or the time in which you discovered about the injury. Although generally you are unable to pursue your claim further if Court Proceedings are not issued within 3 years, this can be waived by court if it can be shown that there was a valid reason as to why you did not pursue your claim in the 3 year period. Negligence depends on whether the treatment you received was to a reasonable standard that could have been expected. If the treatment that you received was in line with the views of a responsible body of medical opinion then the practitioner would have a defence to your medical negligence claim. You need to prove that your injuries would not have occurred if you were not subject to medical negligence from a practitioner. In some cases the injury would have occurred regardless due to the actual illness being treated. At some stage during the claims process it will be necessary for you to obtain a medical report. This is issued from a medical expert and advises whether the treatment given was negligent and whether the injury would have occurred even if negligent treatment had not happened. Dental negligence is similar due to the fact that you have to prove that someone was to blame for the accident (the dental practitioner has been negligent.) You will also need to prove that the injuries would not have occurred if not for the negligence and in some cases you may have occurred the injury anyway. You will also need to obtain a medical report advising whether the treatment provided was negligent and whether your injury would have occurred regardless.
