- District Court
On the balance of probabilities the appellant's bruxism was caused by and arose as a consequence of her accepted injuries (the 1993 motor vehicle accident and the 1996 sexual abuse) rather than being a pre-existing bruxism condition; accordingly ACC must meet past and future treatment costs for the bruxism and related dental care.
