Dental Injury Compensation Claims
Dental treatment should improve your health and comfort—not leave you facing unnecessary pain, expense, or lasting damage. When dental professionals fail to meet the standards expected of them, the impact can be serious. Mistakes such as delayed treatment, misdiagnosis, or poorly performed restorative work can lead to avoidable pain, long-term injury, or even the loss of teeth.
At PSR Solicitors, our experienced medical negligence solicitors represent clients across England and Wales who have suffered due to negligent dental care. Whether the mistake was made by a dentist, dental hygienist, or another oral healthcare professional, we are here to offer clear legal advice and practical support.
We understand how distressing it can be to suffer harm during what should have been routine treatment—especially when it affects your appearance, confidence, or quality of life. That’s why we take the time to listen to your concerns, explain your legal options clearly, and guide you through the claims process with care and professionalism.

I found PSR solicitors very help full and professional in their handling of my claim and would recommend the firm to any one.
I’m incredibly grateful to all at PSR Solicitors. I was sceptical at first of the ‘No Win, No Fee’ basis simply due to never taking legal action before. However, I will have no hesitancy recommending you to other who find themselves in similar circumstances. I’m really pleased with the result.
Quality and professional service. My claim was dealt with very quickly and efficiently, would highly recommend.
Dental negligence occurs when a dental professional fails to provide an acceptable standard of care, and that failure causes you harm. This could happen in an NHS or private setting, during a routine check-up, emergency procedure, or cosmetic treatment.
Common forms of dental negligence include, but are not limited to:
In many cases, the harm caused can lead to potentially life-changing repercussions. These may include long-term pain, speech or eating difficulties, financial loss, or the need for expensive corrective work.
To bring a successful dental negligence claim, we must establish that the treatment you received fell below acceptable professional standards and that this failure caused you harm. In legal terms, this involves proving two key elements:
We work with independent dental and medical experts to assess your records and provide evidence on whether the treatment you received was negligent and avoidable. Where necessary, we also obtain reports on your prognosis and any future treatment you may need.
Dental professionals are regulated by the General Dental Council (GDC) and are legally required to meet professional standards and obtain proper consent for treatment. If these obligations are not met and harm results, you may be entitled to compensation.
Compensation following dental negligence is intended to put you in the position you would have been in if the negligence had not occurred. While money cannot undo the pain or inconvenience, it can provide financial security and access to further treatment.
A successful claim may include payment for:
In appropriate cases, we will also advise on Personal Injury Trusts to help protect your compensation from affecting any means-tested benefits.
At PSR Solicitors, we believe that financial concerns should never prevent you from seeking justice. That’s why we offer no win, no fee funding in most suitable cases.
This means you won’t need to pay any legal fees upfront, and if your claim is unsuccessful, you will not pay any legal costs. If your case succeeds, you will pay a success fee—which is a fixed percentage agreed in advance.
This funding model gives you peace of mind and allows you to focus on your recovery.
Your Dentyal Negligence questions answered
Yes. If informed consent wasn’t properly obtained or if the treatment was still negligent, you may be entitled to compensation.
You generally have three years from the date of the negligence or from when you first realised something had gone wrong. There are exceptions, so it's best to get legal advice as early as possible.
Not immediately. Once you instruct us, we will obtain all relevant dental and medical records on your behalf.
When dental treatment goes wrong due to avoidable mistakes, the consequences can be painful, distressing, and long-lasting. From unnecessary tooth loss and nerve damage to ongoing infections or failed cosmetic procedures, the effects of dental negligence can severely impact your quality of life. At PSR Solicitors, we are here to help you understand what went wrong and to support you in claiming the justice and compensation you are entitled to.
