A dad from Vietnam attached his son's wobbly tooth to a football on Saturday as a bizarre method of extraction.

A video of the incident showed the young boy waiting anxiously with some dental floss running from his wobbly milk tooth to the football.

Dad then blasts the ball into the distance, yanking the tooth out and leaving the poor lad in tears.

Although it might seem a bit cruel, it was the football-obsessed son who himself came up with the strategy for removing the wobbly tooth, according to his father.
