AGGA Dental Device

Injury Claims

The Anterior Growth Guidance Appliance, or AGGA, as well as other dental appliances, have been associated with reports of serious dental and structural complications in some patients. Charnas Law Firm investigates claims involving tooth movement, bite changes, gum injury, exposed roots, bone loss, chronic pain, tooth loss, and other complications following treatment with AGGA, the so-called ARA, MARPE, MSE and other dental appliances. Charnas Law Firm works to determine whether the treatment caused or contributed to permanent injury, whether appropriate warnings and disclosures were provided, and what the cost of required corrective care may be going forward.

When an AGGA Dental Device
Causes Serious Harm

Patients who undergo treatment with an Anterior Growth Guidance Appliance, or AGGA, may later experience complications that go far beyond routine dental discomfort. Reported injuries can include tooth movement or loosening, changes to the bite, gum damage, exposed roots, bone loss, chronic pain, and even tooth loss.

​

Charnas Law Firm investigates AGGA-related claims by closely examining the treatment plan, dental records, imaging, informed-consent materials, device use, progression of symptoms, and the condition of the teeth and supporting bone before and after treatment.

​

These cases can require detailed dental and medical analysis to determine whether the treatment caused or contributed to permanent injury, whether the risks were adequately disclosed, and what corrective treatment may now be necessary.

How an AGGA Dental Device Claim Is Developed

REVIEW THE TREATMENT

The case starts with a close review of the treatment plan, dental records, imaging, device use, provider instructions, and informed-consent materials to understand exactly what was recommended, performed, and disclosed.

DOCUMENT THE DAMAGE

Before-and-after imaging, periodontal findings, tooth movement, bone loss, bite changes, pain complaints, corrective treatment, and expert evaluation can help establish the extent of the injury.

TRACE RESPONSIBILITY

AGGA claims may raise questions involving the treating provider, the device itself, treatment protocols, warnings, and whether the risks were properly communicated. Charnas Law Firm examines the treatment history to determine where responsibility may lie.
