A woman in Fresno has filed a medical malpractice lawsuit against a popular dental care facility. The woman is seeking damages for an infection that she suffered as a result of what she claims to be an error on the part of dentists.
According to the lawsuit, the woman visited the dental care facility for dental issues that she was suffering with. The woman says that she has suffered with an infection. She also alleges that the dentists failed to fit dentures to her mouth properly.
The basis of the lawsuit is that the defendants failed to provide the accepted standard of care.

They are seeking special and general damages as well as any relief the court deems to be fair.
