A 26-year-old mother charged with neglect because her son’s teeth were in poor condition pleaded not guilty Tuesday.

A criminal complaint outlines abuse and neglect of all four children, who were “living in a drug environment and were exposed to domestic violence.”

The complaint states Graf failed to take her 7-year-old son to the dentist for a year and a half, after he was deemed “a severe hospital case.”

Oral Health Partnership told child protective services that the boy’s severe cavities were “a potentially life threatening issue since it is likely (the child) has abscesses and he would be at risk of sepsis and death.”

The complaint states Graf “repeatedly neglected him by missing appointments, cancelling appointments, failing to return phone calls from the dental provider, and not responding to letters sent home.”

After being placed in his grandmother’s care, the boy had dental surgery, according to the criminal complaint. Dental work was done on 14 teeth, including the removal of five teeth “since they were either decayed to the pulp or decayed beyond restoration.”

The boy told investigators he complained about his teeth numerous times to his mother, according to the criminal complaint.

According to the complaint, Graf told authorities she neglected her child’s dental care because she was overwhelmed with being a mother of four children, was in an abusive relationship, was addicted to hard drugs, and was working at the time.

A mother will spend six months in jail after being convicted of child neglect because her son’s teeth were in such bad condition.

Allicia Graf, 27, must also attend parenting classes. She pleaded no contest to the count and was sentenced Monday, according to court records.

The complaint also shows Graf failed to take her 7-year-old son to the dentist for a year and a half, after he was deemed “a severe hospital case.”
