Broken Denti-Cal System Leads to Patient Neglect

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) – Left without bottom teeth for more than two years, a patient was lost in a state program deemed broken and dysfunctional.
Kurtis Ming uncovered that this patient was not alone. Many are struggling to get dental care in a program designed to help one-third of Californians. The Call Kurtis team worked with the viewer for nearly two years, watching her get bounced from dentist to dentist, office to office, without her bottom teeth, embarrassed and in pain.
