TikToker Mel, 35, frequently discusses her dental adventures on social media. She said that flying To Turkey To Get Veneers Was The "Worst Decision" She Had Ever Made
She expressed her sorrow at having so-called "Turkey teeth" after finding the procedure to be quite painful.
The clip began with Mel flying over Turkey, with the caption: "Turkey teeth - worst thing I've ever done!!!"
She then displayed a photograph of herself unconscious throughout the process.
The tanned vacationer was dressed in a medical gown and a net over her hair.
She had a tube coming out of her mouth and her nose was clogged.
She revealed herself with the finished product - a blindingly white pair of gnashers - in the last shot.
Mel added the comment: "Why did I ever get these? Worst mistake ever!! So many gaps, so much pain."
The video rapidly went viral, garnering over 700,000 likes and just shy of 10,000 comments.
One person said: "I was tempted, even had a few consultations. It's a defo NO for me now."
"Sorry you went through this."
Another said: "Thank you for sharing, I was actually going to do this, I won't now. I'm sorry this happened to you."
To which Mel said: "So glad I could change your mind! They really are not worth the money or the pain."
A third person said: "Do your research and don't be fooled by the really cheap options. I love mine and had a great experience."
Another said: "Sorry this happened to you, but thanks for raising awareness."
"So sad to see so many people ruin their teeth because of lack of research."
While a pro added: "Dental ceramist here. I always try and dissuade patients from going with the 'toilet bowl white'."
