Health Risks and Injuries Associated With Opioid Medication Lawsuits
Many people in recovery use opioid treatment drugs to rebuild their lives after addiction. But did you know that certain opioid medications leave an acidic coating on your teeth? This coating is known to cause tooth decay, infection, and loss. Lawsuits argue that drug manufacturers didn’t warn about potential dangers until the FDA required a label update. Below are some of the most common scenarios we’ve handled.
Severe Tooth Decay
Eroded enamel leads to widespread cavities.
Infections and Gum Damage
As decay progresses, infections spread through gums and surrounding tissues.
Tooth Loss
Many patients lose multiple teeth, creating chewing and speaking issues.
Jawbone Loss
Untreated infections and long-term tooth loss weaken the jawbone.
Ongoing Pain and Sensitivity
Weakened enamel creates difficulty eating and constant discomfort.
Major Dental Reconstruction
Crowns, bridges, dentures, or implants are often needed for quality of life.
You trusted medication to help you heal and move forward. If opioid treatment left you with severe dental damage, infection, or tooth loss, you may qualify for compensation.
