All choked up

Speaking of things Oral, a New Zealand man had back surgery, and woke up with more than just pain, he also seemed to be missing his false teeth. The surgeons had no idea where they were.

Then they found them in the back of the man’s throat. Here’s a question: if you’re having back surgery, aren’t you lying on your stomach? The forces of gravity should prevent teeth from traveling upward into your throat?

Sounds like an investigation for Dr. Snee.
