A man in New York had a tooth growing in his nose.
A tooth was found in a 38-year-old man's nose
The unnamed 38-year-old patient arrived at Mount Sinai in Manhattan complaining of breathing difficulties out of his right nasal cavity.
According to the New England Journal of Medicine, Dr Sagar Khanna and Dr Michael Turner diagnosed the individual with a deviated septum - when the division between the nasal passages is forced to one side.
In an attempt to fix the malady, the two surgeons opted for a corrective rhinoplasty, where they uncovered the culprit, an ectopic tooth, roughly .6 inches long.
After the procedure was deemed a success, the man reported being able to breathe through both nostrils again.
