Dental Surgery Compensation
Dental Surgery Compensation Claim
Dental surgery compensation is available when dental treatment falls below an acceptable standard and causes avoidable pain, damage or financial loss. In the UK, procedures such as implants, extractions, root canals, cosmetic dentistry and orthodontic work are carried out every day — but when something goes wrong due to negligence, the consequences can be severe.
If your dental procedure resulted in ongoing pain, failed treatment, nerve damage, infection or unexpected complications, you may be entitled to make a dental surgery compensation claim. At Cosmetic Claims, we explain what went wrong, why it happened and what steps you can take to move forward with confidence.
When Can You Make a Dental Surgery Compensation Claim?
You may be able to make a Dental Surgery Compensation claim if your treatment caused avoidable harm or failed to meet the standard expected of a qualified dental professional. Common examples include:
- Incorrect or unnecessary tooth extraction
- Nerve damage leading to numbness, tingling or persistent pain
- Poorly fitted crowns, bridges, veneers or implants
- Poorly fitted crowns, bridges, veneers or dental implants
- Infection caused by improper hygiene or inadequate aftercare
- Misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose decay, infection or structural issues
- Cosmetic dental work that results in uneven, damaged or unsatisfactory outcomes
Negligence may also apply if your dentist failed to explain the risks, used the wrong technique, or carried out treatment without proper planning.
If you’re unsure whether your experience qualifies as negligence, we can assess your case and explain your options clearly, honestly and without pressure.
