Do I need proof that I suffer from dental nerve injury before I can begin a lawsuit against the NHS?

Wednesday, October 17th, 2012
Q.

You could help me out with this. Do I need to get a diagnosis of dental nerve injury before i start my lawsuit. I have diagnosis of TMJD but I did not mention I had extractions as a child. So before I start my lawsuit for dental nerve damage, do I need a diagnosis, and can my doctor verify it.

Hi

Funnily enough i was thinking of suing the national health service for Because when I was 16 I had 4
permanent tooth removed without my mums consent, first I thought it
was 8 but now read that 4 of them could be impacted wisdom tooth, I
had tooth extractions and braces and it made my attractive face look
unattractive and my 4 wisdom teeth never came through and are hidden
underneath gums because of bad orthodontic work (braces). I have
dental Phobia now, and suspect I suffer from Trigeminal neuralgia
(dental nerve injury) and distress this has caused me is immense. I
went to City University in London (which is the best City University)
and was studying Business Computing but I dropped out because of
Depression. I could’ve done any Business that were of interest to me
and would’ve had the financial backing from my family. But now they
are supporting me because I have panic attacks even in Hospitals. I
have lost interest in many things because of Depression. before my
treatment I was attractive and had no psychiatric illnesses. I feel my
life has been turned upside-down.

I was diagnosed with SLE and then developed advanced periodontal disease and bone loss. Can I receive NHS help?

Wednesday, August 1st, 2012
Q.

Hello Dr Shaffie. Can you please provide me with some guidance. I had gum disease which my dental practitioner was treating successfully at this point. I was then diagnosed with Systemic lupus erythematosus approximately three years ago, and was as a consequence put on Hydroxychloroquine and methotexrate. Since then my teeth have gotten to quite a bad condition with several loose and some missing. I have been told by my dentist that I have advanced periodontal disease and bone loss. I don’t know if I have the dental terminology right with that but I was hoping you would be able to let me know if I am able to receive financial help from the NHS for this problem or some other source to help fix my dental problems. I hope you are able to let me know and thank you.

My new crowns do not match my teeth, is there anything I can do?

Wednesday, October 26th, 2011
Q.

Hi. I had my front top teeth crowned many years ago due to them being discoloured and ‘ridged’ (lots of cough medicine as a child). They looked great, but over the years I’ve had to have some replaced. Now I seem to have a mouth-full of non-matching crowns! (In shape, size & colour). Is there anything that could be done to change the colour of a crown or add a \veneer’| I also have a crown on a post which is about to break off. My NHS dentist advised to have the root removed and have a small denture – I really don’t want this. I’ve asked about an implant but he doesn’t seem keen. What can I do? Thanks.

Can I get veneers through the NHS or by interest-free installments?

Friday, February 18th, 2011
Q.

Dear Dr Verma,

I am 51 years old and have one false tooth denture, front bottom left and in the last six months gaps have started appearing between my teeth.

I desperately need to get some veneers done, unfortunately I am not working at present so need to either get these done free on the NHS or pay by interest free instalments.

Can you help please?

Kind regards

Sam
