Woman groped by dental assistant in shocking video: 'It was a devastating experience'

A woman who was sexually assaulted while in the dentist's chair is calling it "a devastating experience."

In an Inside Edition investigation that will air Tuesday, Valerie Oliva revealed she was still groggy from anesthesia after having her wisdom teeth pulled when the dental assistant groped her.

Video obtained by Inside Edition showed the assault at the dentist's office in California in 2016.

"It was a devastating experience, something that no one should have to go through," Oliva told Inside Edition's Chief Investigative Correspondent Lisa Guerrero.

Unfortunately, she was not the assistant's only victim.
