Layla Waters, 52, has been unable to get a dentist appointment for more than two years from the public hospital, which is about an hour from her home. Toothaches first started in 2020. The woman, who said she called the hospital during the quarantine period, pulled her tooth herself because she couldn’t stand the toothache any longer.

The woman, whose teeth were infected, managed to pull out her aching tooth with the help of a kitchen towel. Two months later, she had to do the same thing again with a second infected tooth. “It was so bad in the end that I decided I had to do something,” Layla Waters said in an interview.
Layla Waters, who can’t afford private treatment in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, added: “I take a pack of painkillers every other day. I have a toothache. Now all my teeth are loose. I called 49 dentists. The best answer I got was that I could be put on a waiting list, but it took months.”
