Broken Dental Instruments
During a root canal procedure it is possible that a file or other instrument can be broken and remain lodged in the tooth. The breaking of a file in and of itself is not considered malpractice however if the treating dentist or endodontist fails to inform the patient of the broken file and fails to refer the patient to an Oral Surgeon this can lead to a dental malpractice claim.

Endodontic Procedure Malpractice
Endodontic procedures may lead to injury due to many causes. Complications include instruments left in the tooth canals, Nerve and Sinus perforations, root perforations, underfilling or overfilling of the root canals, may all lead to injuries caused by malpractice. If, during root canal procedures, the nerve material is not completely removed or the canal is not properly sterilized infections can occur. If improper force is used while injecting the bleaching sterilization agent nerve damage can occur. if the filling material is placed beyond the root tip nerve injury may also occur.
Prosthodontic Malpractice
Prosthodontists specialize in restoration and replacement of teeth. malpractice can occur when the treating prosthodontist fails to properly fit crowns or match them to the existing teeth.

Orthodontic Malpractice Injuries
The majority of orthodontic lawsuits arise due to severe root resorption. Patients must be X-rayed routinely to check for root pathology. If root resorption occurs, the patient should be advised immediately. Treatment may need to be modified or ceased. Adult patients tend to lose bone more rapidly than younger patients during orthodontic treatment and should be monitored more closely.
Adverse Drug Reaction Malpractice
Many drugs are contradictory to dental procedures. A prudent dentist should obtain a complete history of the medications being taken by a patient. Denosumab or Prolia, a drug taken for bone loss by women for osteoporosis or by bone cancer patients may cause a condition called osteonecrosis of the jaw ( ONJ). Furthermore, dentists may negligently provide drugs that are contraindicated by a patient's medical history.
Failure to Diagnose Oral Cancers
Failing to diagnose Oral Cancers in a timely manner is malpractice. Many treating Oral Surgeons and general dentists fail to spot the early warning signs of oral cancer.
