It was the last time her parents would see her alive.
“All I did was I took my daughter to the dentist to fix her teeth,” Avila said in Spanish. “About 30 minutes later, they brought her (back) dead.” 1
(Children who are normally referred to a clinic like this have “extreme dental needs, or cannot sit still in a dental chair” and are given a different type of sedation than they use in a regular dental office. 2)

Her parents claim she was “100 percent healthy; when she got there, she was very happy.” 3
Our hearts go out to this poor family. Rest in peace sweet girl.
