A 7-year-old boy in India had a legion of teeth removed from his mouth — 526 teeth, to be exact. The unusual surgery was performed at Saveetha Dental College and Hospital in Chennai, India.

I thought it was kinda cool...but x-rays of jaws don't gross me out.

Do we need a warning in the thread title?

One of my kids had ONE extra tooth, which came in when he lost the baby tooth. It was triangular and weird. I was sure that it was because I had ONE glass of wine while I was pregnant. It got pulled, and a normal tooth came in after that. Whew!

One extra tooth was enough to give me nightmares; I can’t imagine hundreds of extra teeth. Yikes.

Or don’t.

If you think looting is bad wait until I tell you about civil forfeiture.

Wow, I had no idea that was a thing. Also, just the pictures alone aren't disturbing (nor is the x-ray pic) but I definitely don't want to see any footage from surgery! Eeker
