Mother: My children need HIV tests after dentist scare

Police in Nottinghamshire are investigating the death of a woman last year who was treated by a dentist suspended over concerns about infection control.

22,000 patients of Desmond D'Melllo, who worked at the Daybrook Surgery in Nottingham, are being recalled for blood tests.

NHS England say he didn't wash his hands or sterilise equipment. He was suspended by the General Dental Council.

Rebecca Lawrence, a former dental nurse, was treated by D'Mello, along with her three children.

She told Drive she was "furious" that she would have to take her children for a blood test. This clip is originally from Drive on 12 November 2014.
