Becky Carroll claimed in a lawsuit that she awoke during a ‘horror movie’ dental surgery and was left unable to chew for years after.

A woman’s cosmetic dental surgery turned into something straight out of a horror movie. In a new lawsuit obtained by CBS News, Becky Carroll, 52, claimed she woke up during dental surgery and was left unable to chew for two years after the operation.

When Carroll decided to fix her missing and crooked teeth, she opted out of a dentist’s suggestion of root canals and crowns. Instead, she decided to pay $31,000 to get “a new smile in one day.” The procedure, which took place at ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers, consisted of replacing teeth with implants instead of fixing them.

“I thought implants would be easier, and all at once, so you didn’t have to keep going back to the dentist,” she told the outlet in an interview. “But I should have asked more questions … like can they save these teeth?”
