Tooth scary! Dental emergency sees departing Hammer Morrison have SEVEN teeth removed



Ravel Morrison’s career has taken another twist after it emerged he was sent home from West Ham’s pre-season tour to have seven teeth removed.



Morrison, who joined Championship side Birmingham on loan yesterday, shocked Hammers staff when he complained of toothache in Germany last week.



Club officials were initially preparing to fine the former Manchester United midfielder for failing to turn up for training when they made the gruesome discovery.

He was flown back to England for emergency treatment and told his teeth are in such poor condition that up to seven will have to be extracted.

Morrison, who has failed to make an impact at Upton Park since he moved from United last season, has been advised to have dental implants, costing around £28,000.



He will initially wear temporary moulds while the implants are being made.



Morrison leads a chaotic lifestyle and surprised Hammers staff on their pre- season tour with his increasingly bizarre behaviour.



The midfielder refused to drink anything other than official ‘West Ham bottled water’ during their short stay in Germany.



Morrison, who made his senior United debut in the Carling Cup against Wolves in 2010, has struggled to convince West Ham boss Sam Allardyce he is ready for regular first-team action.



Although there is no doubt he has the ability to be a top player, he lacks maturity.
