… called a Thornton Adjustable Positioner, which is a brand name for a mandibular advancement appliance you wear like a mouth guard. My dentist had to take molds of my upper and lower teeth, then sent the molds to the company, who made the appliance to fit over my teeth at night. The two pieces hook together, and you can adjust it to pull your lower jaw forward when you sleep, which opens your airway and alleviates sleep apnea.
Anyway – turns out that the device, over the years, has pushed my front lower teeth forward almost a half an inch, so now I have a severe underbite. It has totally changed the bite pattern in my mouth so that now my back teeth don’t even touch or come together at all.
I went to an orthodontist who said that the appliance has caused this problem, and it’s going to take 6,000 dollars worth of orthodontia (braces) and 18 months to solve it.
There was no warning about this problem from the TAP maker. Should I get a lawyer and try to sue them for the
cost of the braces? My orthodontist said he would have NEVER offered these appliances, because even when they first came out, he foresaw that these kinds of problems were going to occur. Wish I had known him back then, but…
Yes, you can sue for personal damages. At the least, they would have to pay for the medical bills. You could probaly get alot more aswell. Get yourself a good lawyer though
