The couple say they were lured by cheaper dental prices in Turkey
A couple who flew to Turkey to have €4k cosmetic veneers fitted to their teeth say it "ruined their lives" - and left unable to eat or drink.
The day after touching down in Turkey, the couple headed to a private clinic near their hotel for the first stage of their transformation. There, they had X-rays and were given a dose of local anaesthetic as dentists filed down their teeth. They had to survive on mashed potatoes and soup and said even water was hard to swallow due to their majorly sensitive teeth.
"Looking back now, we 100 percent would not have had it done. It's cost us so much money and it's been hell. ''After all our teeth were gone they fitted the temporary veneers but I was already scared. My dad even once told me I needed an Oscar for going for a blood test. "I asked to be numbed because I was already in so much pain. We both ended up having numbing. I think they were just sick of us because some people just sit there and have it done, but we all have different pain thresholds."
