South Lake Tahoe police officers are looking for a person who has been performing basic dental work without a proper dental office or license, and doing so in kitchen.

Officers said it appears this is a cash business that preys on the vulnerabilities of the poor.

Two local dentists told police that people have needed dental repair work after receiving this substandard dentistry.

Anyone with information is asked to call the police department at 530.542.6100.
