Hi, I am just wondering if nerve pain and potential damage would be covered under dental malpractice that would have been caused by an incorrectly done filling.

I’m sorry you’re experiencing nerve pain potentially linked to an improper filling. To answer your question, it depends. If the dentist’s actions fell below the standard of care expected from a reasonably competent dentist while performing the filling and directly caused the injury, it is very likely to fall under dental malpractice. Your best course of action is to speak with a personal injury attorney about the specifics of your case to determine your options. You can book a consultation on our website 24/7 or call our office at 303-688-0944.
