A woman has single-handedly pulled out 11 of her teeth, all by herself because she says she couldn’t afford a visit to a private dentist.
As we all are aware, teeth are a very important part of our bodies. From eating and speaking to smiling too- they really make a huge difference to your quality of life. And those who are aware of tooth pain know that there’s nothing else in the world that compares to it.
But what do you do when you can’t afford a visit to a private dentist but need your teeth treated at the same time? Well, we sure hope you don’t go about doing what this woman from the UK did.
Think along the lines of bizarre, dangerous, and very daring indeed.
42-year-old Danielle Watts made headlines after she confirmed how she self-treated her own teeth by pulling them out by herself. How’s that for some shocking news? Yes, that was really something that not even she was expecting to do, but in the end, desperate times call for desperate measures and this just might be one of those cases.
For the last three years, Danielle spoke about how difficult it has been for her to live without having her teeth treated.point 229 |

Hence, she says she tolerated an immense amount of pain but went through with the wild idea of pulling her teeth out. In the end, it was a good decision on her part because at least they’re out without costing a dime. But wait, the aftermath is as devastating as can be.
Danielle says she no longer smiles and it’s tough having only a third of her dentition. “I’m just so insecure all the time because I don’t like the way I look or feel,” she went on to add.
