Dental drama

A woman in Hong Kong was in hospital this week recovering after doctors removed the 15cm toothbrush she had swallowed. The incident occurred when the woman slipped on her bathroom floor while brushing her teeth. Unable to speak with the toothbrush lodged where it should not have been, she had the presence of mind to take another toothbrush from home to be able to show medical folk her problem. Doctors were able to remove the brush but didn't seem to report if the brush had been stuck crossways.
