Schoolgirl Starved to Death after Dental Operation
An 8-year old British girl who was terrified of dentists refused to eat or even talk after all her milk teeth were taken out has been reported dead last December 2, 2008. The kid named Sophie Waller was found dead in her bed at home despite attempts to feed her and treating the trauma caused by the dental operation.
It was later noted by a pathologist to the inquest that Sophie had died of acute renal failure from starvation and dehydration.
As a mother, I personally believe that the parents should have taken precautions in encouraging the child to undergo a dental operation. Gosh, I mean - a single tooth extraction can make an adult petrified to see the dentist so what more for an 8-year old child to be pulled out of all her baby teeth?
I honestly find this news so tragic and I personally believe that the child’s death is senseless. To Sophie, God bless you and I hope you are now happy in heaven.

oh, that's irresponsible... so sad to hear about this case:(
Hi Shawie,
Yes, we pity the girl who starved to death because of the incompetence of her dentist and her parents too. May God have pity on their souls. Thanks for your visit and encouraging comments. God bless you always.
This is so sad! May Sophie's soul find peace up there with HIM!
Hi Joops,
Thanks for your prayers. God bless you more for that. Thanks also for your visit. God bless you always.
Oh my goodness, why on earth they took the baby teeth?? When I was young I just let it grow and when I feel that it is ready to be plucked out I do it on my own hehe with the help of a thread. At least in my pysche I had to do it and I have to survive in this chapter of my life. But hello all the milk teeth to be operated and taken out?? That is horrific but how come nobody talked to the kid where are the parents?
