In a dental malpractice case in Turkey, what are the three types of legal liability a dentist may face? Can a lawsuit be filed for nerve damage resulting from a dental procedure?

In Turkey, a dentist may face three types of legal liability for medical errors (malpractice): 1) Criminal Liability (Cezaî Sorumluluk), which can lead to criminal sanctions. 2) Liability for Compensation (Tazminat Sorumluluğu), which requires the dentist to pay for the material and moral damages suffered by the patient. 3) Disciplinary Responsibility (Disiplin Sorumluluğu), which can result in sanctions from the professional chamber (chamber of dentists). Yes, a lawsuit for compensation can be filed against a dentist for nerve damage if it is proven that the damage occurred due to the dentist's incorrect or negligent treatment.
