Meyerson & Miller Attorneys at Law
Mistakes and accidents that occur during dental or periodontal treatments such as root canals, extractions, and implant procedures, can lead to debilitating and life-changing injuries. The human mouth is a sensitive environment full of nerves and specific bacteria, so oral surgeries that are not performed with due care and expertise carry a high risk of painful nerve damage and the development of infections. The pain associated with cut or damaged nerves, such as the lingual nerve or alveolar nerve, can be so severe that patients are left unable to comfortably eat or talk.

Bacterial infections that may occur at the site of a dental procedure can be life-threatening and are often difficult to treat. Certain infections that begin in the mouth can even spread to bones and other body parts if debridement procedures and antibiotics do not promptly control and eradicate the problem.

When dental or periodontal procedures result in significant pain or inflammation, it is very important to seek medical care right away to minimize the injury. If the condition does not resolve, the patient may find herself facing years of discomfort and staggering medical bills. The attorneys at Meyerson & O’Neill are experienced in helping injured dental patients secure payment from negligent parties to compensate them for their pain and suffering and the cost of future medical/dental care. Recently, we successfully resolved a case on behalf of a young woman who developed severe osteomyelitis (bone infection) after undergoing a seemingly straightforward extraction and implant procedure.
