Don't know. If the dentist agrees with your position perhaps you can justify help for the total bill but there is not much here.

You may be able to sue the restaurant. However, you may have a hard time proving that the earring came from their food.

You can claim all injuries related to biting down on the earring. If your Dentist will say the back tooth is related, then you will have medical proof and can claim that as well. You would also be entitled to something for pain and suffering. Good luck.

It depends how badly the tooth is broken. Okay, you should get a little something extra but unless there are long term problems, serious cosmetic effects or something of that nature, it probably isn't worth involving a lawyer over, take them to small claims court if that would make you feel better. I don't buy the business about breaking the back tooth as having anything to do with this.
