DAILY MAIL:
Pensioner, 76, forced to pull out own teeth after 12 NHS dentists refuse to treat
A grandmother performed her own tooth extractions in despair after being turned away by 12 dentists.
Elizabeth Green, 76, was in agony with two front teeth and after a fruitless search for an NHS practitioner, resorted to DIY.
Her case is the latest of many to highlight the dwindling availability of NHS dental treatment.
Grandmother Elizabeth Green suffered hours of agony as she twisted and pulled two of her teeth until they came free
Mrs Green, a former chef, said it was made plain to her that if she could pay for treatment she would have been welcomed.
"I feel so angry," she said. "I've worked all my life and paid taxes and then when I need help I can't get it."
DAILY ECHO: IN agony for days and without a dentist willing to see her, Elizabeth Green felt she had no choice but to pull out her own teeth.
The Hampshire grandmother was in such pain with the two front teeth she wiggled them back and forth for several hours with her fingers until they came away.
The 76-year-old widow has spoken of her anger at being forced to become a do-it-yourself dentist due to the lack of NHS dental care in her area.
WHAT DOES THIS TEL US ABOUT THE QUALITY OF HEALTHCARE UNDER SOCIALISM? IT SUCKS!
- IF IT DOESN'T WORK IN GREAT BRITAIN - AFTER 60 YEARS! - IT WONT EVER WORK HERE.
- DON'T FALL FOR THE DEMOCRATS' LIES.
