Hi all, looking for advice from anyone who has done this/and legal professionals.
I have always visited the dentist every six months. I registered with a new dentist last year due to a house move. At my first appointment he told me that I had gum disease which was so bad my teeth were going to fall out. I was obviously really upset as gum disease has never been mentioned to me before . I have since been referred to a consultant and am indeed going to lose teeth, and will have to have ongoing treatment as the bones which hold my teeth in place are disintegrating. I am angry that my previous dentist didn't pick up on this, as the outcome could have been much better if caught sooner. Where do I stand legally with regards to taking legal action against my previous dentist?
