An Edmonton dentist whose four-year-old patient suffered permanent brain damage is guilty of failing to provide appropriate care during treatment that involved anesthesia, the Alberta Dental Association and College has ruled. Mather, who has since retired, was accused of five counts of unprofessional conduct and a number of other administrative infractions. The college held a six-day tribunal hearing in October and found him guilty or partially guilty on all five of the main charges. Amber's father, Ramandeep Singh Athwal, said his family is pleased the college tribunal found Mather guilty of the charges. After Amber's treatment, while she was unconscious, Mather left the surgical suite to see other patients.
