Is it possible to sue a dentist?

Reading time: 3 min.

Dental services must meet a certain quality standard. Unfortunately, there are cases when dentists neglect their duties, which can lead to serious health problems for patients. In such situations, the question arises: is it possible to sue the dentist?

In what cases does the patient have the right to sue the dentist?

There are several reasons why a patient can sue a dentist. Here are some of them:

  • Negligent or improper medical care: This may include errors in diagnosis, treatment, or surgery that lead to injury, infection, or other complications.
  • Unreasonable actions: the dentist performed procedures that were not necessary or did not correspond to the treatment plan agreed with the patient.
  • Inadequate information: The patient was not adequately informed about the risks associated with the treatment or about alternative treatment options.
  • Physical or emotional harm: The dentist has caused physical pain or emotional distress to the patient through negligence or maltreatment.
  • Breach of confidentiality: The dentist disclosed confidential patient information.

Why is it important not to keep silent about such matters?

Filing a lawsuit against a dentist can help:

  1. Protect your rights and receive compensation for damage to your health.
  2. Hold the dentist accountable for his actions.
  3. Stop the dentist from harming other patients.
