A POLICE officer has won £10,000 after a dental nightmare left her suffering in agony for eight years.
Gemma Wardley couldn't smile, sleep or eat properly after a dentist attributed her problems to a sinus infection.
The 36-year-old, from Swinton, first visited the practice in 2013 after experiencing pain in the top-left of her mouth.
Though the dentist carried out a root canal on one of her teeth, it didn't stop the pain, forcing the police sergeant to return months later for the same treatment on an adjacent tooth.
But when the pain persisted, Gemma went back to the practice in 2015 where the dentist noticed the root canal wasn't deep enough.
He performed the same procedure again - this time without any pain relief.
