Detroit Dental Malpractice Lawyers
Just as we trust physicians to provide appropriate care for our overall physical health, we trust dentists to take care of and help maintain our oral health. Unfortunately, dentists do not always act with the care and responsibility that we expect, resulting in potentially serious health problems or harm that dramatically affects a person. When this is the case, the dentist or dental assistant may actually be guilty of committing dental malpractice, something for which they can be held accountable.
Unfortunately, as our team at Ravid & Associates, P.C., is aware, many people in Detroit suffer the repercussions of dental malpractice. From pain to unsightly teeth, dental malpractice can have a number of unwanted and serious effects. Fortunately, though, dental patients who have been harmed as a result of dental malpractice are entitled to financial compensation.
Repercussions of Dental Malpractice
Dental malpractice might take a number of forms and can have a wide variety of consequences. Some of the most common errors and their consequences include:

As a result of these acts of dental malpractice and their consequences, a person might not only suffer serious physical pain, but also emotional trauma and financial burdens. Fortunately, by pursuing a dental malpractice claim, many victims are able to get much-needed justice and compensation.
