A man has discovered a creepy abandoned dental surgery left to rot for over 10 years – and filled with teeth.
Daniel Sims, 34, explored the 1st Dental in Harrogate, which closed its doors in 2012 two years after the company went into administration.
The building has been abandoned ever since, leaving behind false teeth, old moulds, the lab where they created the teeth, braces, dentures and discarded equipment.
The urban explorer, from Huddersfield, shares his adventures on YouTube and social media under the name Bearded Reality.
In the YouTube video, the camera follows Daniel as he takes a deep dive into the abandoned surgery and shows the scattered teeth and debris left behind.
“It was unreal and quite spooky seeing bits of fake teeth spread everywhere,” Daniel told NeedToKnow.online.
“The site itself is pretty big and was filled with old teeth moulds and so many dental files.
“The labs where they created the teeth were quite exciting and I had never seen anything like it.
“Seeing the moulds, braces, dentures, and lab equipment was quite special and something you would not normally see.
“We were on this site for a good couple of hours as there was so much to see and it’s not very often you come across a dental lab.
“It seems to have been vacated very quickly leaving everything behind – ranging from implants to replace missing teeth, surgical equipment, medical masks, and patient records.
“I was quite surprised that such a place was abandoned and left but it’s understandable as the company went into administration.”
The haunting footage shows dentures left on tables, old surgical items left to rot, files and records in the staff room, and the ghostly atmosphere in the reception room, with chairs for old patients left behind.
Pictures taken by Daniel also give an insight into the eerie scenes, with one showing individual fake teeth scattered on a table alongside diagrams.
Another image shows pots of what appears to be medicine, as well as old pictures and white powder on one table.
Another shot shows rows of surgical tables littered with files.
Meanwhile elsewhere, dental moulds stand upright on a table next to a creepy handwritten note reading ‘But why’.
An old calendar is left on the walls of one room dated 2012.
It is not clear if the surgery will be repurposed in the future, but for now it appears it will stand still in time, remaining uninhabited.
