A 30-year-old woman who was left "distraught" after losing her teeth in a freak accident is now trying to break the stigma of having dentures fitted at a young age.
Jess Sutcliffe's teeth had begun to wear away in her teens, due to her drinking too many soft drinks. Her dental issues worsened considerably however when, in May 2016, a falling ladder struck her in the mouth, kocking out her two front teeth.
The mum-of-one had her teeth pushed back in by doctors without any anaesthetic, and had to come off the contraceptive pill while undergoing a course of antibiotics.
