“During the start of Covid-19 my dad's girlfriend Fran had non-stop toothache and was badgering my Dad to pull it out for her. He declined almost every time, but her wining got the best of him. After 6 cans of Carling, they were both ready to take it on. With his hand and two pulls her rotten tooth came out swiftly. These are probably the only photos I've captured where I can genuinely feel the atmosphere of the room”. Sarah Hollamby
First lockdown dentists were closed, I had to sort out my own temporary filling, I explored the world of home dentistry, this is something people do anyway due to financial constraints. I found DIY tooth repair kits like Dentak and Toofy Pegs, also lots of you tube videos on how to fix your own teeth. I searched high and low for home repair kits as many shops had sold out. My neighbour had fixed her own crown and was willing to share her last bit of tooth putty with me, in the end I managed to find a pack. When I saw this brilliant set of photos by Sarah of her dad’s girlfriend tooth situation I felt her pain, it could have been me! Chloe Juno
