Dental Negligence Claims Law in Scotland

One area of particular growth for the Jones Whyte personal injury team, dental negligence claims form a branch of medical negligence claims generally. While most dentists perform a satisfactory service, sometimes things do go wrong. If you have suffered an injury as a result of dental negligence in Scotland, you could be entitled to compensation. This could be the case if you’ve been a victim of a misdiagnosis, careless practices or inadequate treatment. But in order to bring a successful claim, like those Greg and his team have led in recent years, your case relies not only on a solid understanding of PI law and the claims process, but in particular on whether the standard of care provided by the dentist was reasonable in the circumstances. In other words, did the dentist uphold their professional medical standards when providing their treatment?

And how much compensation can be recovered will depend on the circumstances of your case, in addition to the seriousness of your injuries and the longer-term detrimental effects on your life.
