Couple say Turkey teeth have 'ruined their lives' after procedure left them in 'constant pain'

A couple who spent £4,000 getting 'Turkey teeth' have said that the procedure has "ruined their lives" four months on.

Jade Tushingham, 32, and her partner Kelly Tushingham, 30, admitted that they have been left in "constant pain" since getting their 'Turkey teeth' in September. The increasingly popular dental procedure involves having your teeth filed down into stubs in order to have crowns or veneers fitted over the top.

Jade and Kelly, from Chester, visited a private clinic in Antalya and were given local anaesthetic as dentists filed down their teeth, which caused them both "instant" pain. The pair then waited in the clinic's reception for around five hours before being fitted with temporary veneers, the Manchester Evening News reports.
