A MAN accused of pulling out his girlfriend's teeth with a pair of pliers appeared at Bolton Crown Court.
Jason Morris, aged 29, of Nasmyth Street, Horwich, pleaded not guilty to causing grievous bodily harm. He was arrested in April.
Police were called to his house after ambulance staff had taken his girlfriend to hospital. He was accompanied in court on Friday by his partner, Samantha Courts, aged 28.
He denied any assault and pleaded not guilty to causing grievous bodily harm with intent and inflicting grievous bodily harm.
Morris, dressed in a black leather jacket and black trousers, spoke only to confirm his name during the 15-minute hearing. He was bailed with conditions.
A trial date is due to be fixed in September. It will be held at Bolton Crown Court.
