Hypnosis used in dental procedure
A dental patient underwent hypnosis to have two rotten teeth removed because he could not afford private treatment.
Leslie Mason was facing a £400 bill for the procedure to be performed privately as his local surgery in Colchester, Essex, had exhausted its NHS budget.
Mr Mason, 54, instead chose to play the role of guinea pig to a Hertfordshire dentist’s unorthodox form of treatment, using hypnosis as the only painkiller.
