Defending Dentists From Malpractice Claims

As prominent medical professionals, dentists are at high risk for malpractice claims. It is critical for the dentist or their insurer to resolve a problem like a malpractice allegation as quickly and cost-effectively as possible. The fate of the dentist and other dental employees depends on it.

We are Clapp, Peterson, Tiemessen, Thorsness LLC, a dental malpractice defense law firm serving clients throughout Alaska. With years of experience in arbitration and litigation, we have a proven record of success defending dental professionals of all stripes.

Some of the matters we handle include:

  • Misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose
  • Delay in treatment
  • Operation on the wrong area
  • Anesthesia complications
  • Inadequate or incorrect dental technique
  • Damage to teeth, nerves or other areas

We represent dental clinics, individual dentists and insurers in cases of many varieties. To defend your career, contact us today.

License Defense Is Crucial For Your Career

Without a dental license, your career can deflate permanently. If you run your own practice, your employees stand to lose their jobs, too. Our lawyers can help you protect your license when you run into serious issues. We have worked with the licensing boards of numerous industries, including the American Dental Association and the Alaska Board of Dental Examiners. Having successfully defended numerous clients’ licenses before these organizations, we will take every measure available to ensure that you keep your hard-won dental license.
