Soboxone Lawsuits and Safety Concerns
Suboxone® is a prescription medication commonly used to treat opioid use disorder. While it has helped many patients manage addiction, reports have emerged linking Suboxone, particularly the film and tablet forms dissolved in the mouth, to severe dental injuries.
Patients have reported tooth decay, cavities, gum disease, infections, and tooth loss, even among those with no prior history of dental problems. These injuries may require extensive and costly dental treatment.
Carabin Law is reviewing claims from individuals who suffered serious dental harm after using Suboxone.
Dental Injuries Linked to Suboxone
In January 2022, the FDA issued a safety communication warning that buprenorphine medications dissolved in the mouth may cause serious dental problems, even when used as directed.
Reported dental injuries include:
Severe tooth decay
Cavities
Tooth fractures
Gum disease
Oral infections
Tooth loss
Some patients required crowns, root canals, or full dental reconstruction.
Why Suboxone May Cause Dental Damage
Medical experts believe dental injuries may occur due to:
Prolonged contact with acidic medication
Reduced saliva flow
Changes in oral pH
Frequent dosing over long periods
Many patients report they were not adequately warned about these risks or how to protect their teeth while using Suboxone.
Suboxone Litigation Overview
Suboxone lawsuits allege that manufacturers failed to provide adequate warnings about the risk of dental injuries associated with dissolvable buprenorphine products.
Claims may involve:
Failure to warn
Defective product design
Negligence
Suboxone litigation remains active, including claims brought by Texas plaintiffs.
