A New Jersey woman was arrested for performing dental work without a license after she attempted a root canal on a man’s choppers but couldn’t finish the job, cops said.
The patient told investigators he had scheduled an appointment with Ana C. Amato of Old Bridge after he saw her advertising in a group chat on WhatsApp, South River police said.
The man told cops he agreed to pay her $1,000 for the procedure.
But before he went back to have the procedure completed, Amato informed him she couldn’t finish the procedure and gave him a list of dentists in the area who could complete the work, cops said.
