A man extracted his own teeth after not being able to get an NHS dentist.
George Glinos, from Childwall, has been carrying out his own dental procedures on teeth which have become loose for around four years after saying he has been unable to get treatment on the NHS. In total the 67-year-old said he has pulled out 11 of his own teeth, which he keeps in a jar.
George claims he rings on the first day of every month to try and get an NHS dentist, however said "nobody is interested" in taking on new patients. The NHS advises against self-treatment, asking people in need of help to call the NHS 111 number or a local dentistry practice.
