Personal Accident & Personal Injury Lawyers
Both personal accident and personal injury lawyers deal with people who have been harmed:
Personal ACCIDENT lawyers deal with cases where the harm was likely accidental rather than intentional; with compensation often sought from insurance companies who cover accidents. The accidents often involve motor vehicles or occur at the workplace,
Personal INJURY lawyers deal not only with accidents, but also where the harm was as a result of another party's intentional behaviour.
It is critical that you check that your lawyer is a member of the Legal Practice Council; and vet them inter alia by assessing their online reviews.

Damages due to the supply of unsafe or defective goods
Under the Consumer Protection Act, you can claim against retailers for damages due to the supply of unsafe or defective goods. The CPA allows you to claim for injuries or loss caused by defective products, regardless of negligence on the part of the supplier.
Take photos of the object, the packaging, your receipt, and any injuries. Keep the object as evidence.
File a complaint with the retailer directly, explaining what happened and requesting they cover your dental expenses.
If the retailer does not respond satisfactorily, you can escalate your complaint to the Consumer Goods & Services Ombud. They handle disputes between consumers and suppliers.
