Suffolk woman yanks out her teeth after losing hope in National Health Service for a dental appointment

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 7 ― A woman in England who was desperate for dental care, ended up yanking out 11 of her teeth after losing faith in the government service to get a dentist appointment.

Watts also said that she had to do it on her own as there was no one to assist her with her condition which affected her confidence significantly.
