A woman in Nevada, US, broke into a dentist's office and pulled 13 teeth from an unconscious patient, police report.
Laurel Eich also broke into the same place on a separate occasion and stole money, says Washoe County Police.
The woman claims to have previously worked in the office, although she is not a dentist.
She allegedly stole nearly $23,000 from the dentist's office during a break-in in May.

The 42-year-old woman was arrested on Wednesday and has been charged with two counts of burglary and one count each of grand larceny, conspiracy to commit burglary and perform surgery on another without a medical licence.
