Magic even the tooth fairy can not perform
Early 20th Century, some people were convinced that taking out teeth could cure mental disorders.
Dr. Henry Cotton (USA) thought that bacterial infections could cause brain damage. First he made his patients toothless, then he extracted their tonsils, and finally, he took away more vital organs.
Cotton claimed a cure rate of 85 percent. Actually, nearly 43 per cent of his patients died! The man was obsessed and even had some of his own teeth extracted to cure his heart failure. His wife and two sons also lost teeth.
It didn't bring any good; the sons both committed suicide when they were still quite young.....
