SWPELLET - A dad-of-three who had a shooting accident as a teen was shocked to discover a lead pellet had been lodged in his mouth - for 35 YEARS. A dad-of-three who constantly set off airport security alarms has finally discovered the reason why - a lead pellet which has been lodged in his mouth for 35 YEARS. Steve Davies, 50, was left with a hole in his right cheek at the age of 15 after he accidentally shot himself in the face with an air gun. The wound soon healed and he thought little more of it - until almost three decades later when he had an appointment with a new dentist.
