Lingual Nerve Injury Settlement
Jane Paulson settled a lingual nerve injury case this month. The client’s lingual nerve was injured during an extraction of her wisdom teeth. Injury to the lingual nerve should not occur during wisdom tooth extraction when the procedure is performed properly. No one expects to have a numb tongue from having his/her wisdom teeth extracted. In our opinion, it is an avoidable risk of the procedure.
Jane has represented and continues to represent clients who are injured during wisdom tooth extraction in Oregon and Washington.
