Two misdemeanor charges have been added against a California oral surgeon accused of sexually assaulting multiple patients, NBC affiliate KCRA reported Feb. 15.
Mary Alexander & Associates filed a lawsuit against David Webb, DDS, in July accusing the oral surgeon of sexually abusing, harassing and assaulting patients. Misdemeanor charges were filed against Dr. Webb on July 13 and 14, according to court records. A misdemeanor charge and civil complaint were also filed in December 2021 and March 14, 2022, respectively.
The two new charges were added Feb. 15.
In August, a judge from the Solano County Superior Court decided not to suspend Dr. Webb's dental license, stating that decision is up to the Dental Board of California. The judge did, however, order Dr. Webb to have an adult present with him at all times while meeting with patients. Dr. Webb still has a license to practice dentistry in California, but he now lives in Idaho. It is unknown whether he has applied for a dental license in Idaho, the news station reported.
Dr. Webb's attorney said the dentist maintains his innocence and has pleaded not guilty to the previous charges.
