A dad was forced to yank out a loose tooth with a pair of pliers after failing to get a dentist appointment - saying he had no option.<br /><br />Chris Langston, 50, was left in excruciating pain for six months as he tried to arrange an NHS dentist appointment to resolve the issue. <br /><br />His back molar had become loose, causing pain from eating, drinking and even talking. <br /><br />Chris says that he couldn’t afford the £90 private fees for tooth removals and that the nearest emergency dentist was over 30 miles away. <br /><br />Instead he grabbed his pliers and ripped the tooth out in the bathroom of his home in Oswestry, Shropshire.
