Hamburg, Feb 7 (DPA) Adolf Hitler probably had bad breath and unhealthy teeth, according to a German dentist who has studied the Nazi dictator's medical record, a media report said Sunday.

'It is likely that Adolf Hitler had very bad breath. He ate very badly and suffered from tooth decay,' Menevse Deprem-Hennen told the Sunday edition of Bild newspaper.

The dentist reportedly studied Hitler's dental records in the course of her doctorate, which she entitled Dentist of the Devil.

She said the research indicated that the Nazi dictator feared dentist.

'It appears Hitler was very sensitive to pain,' Deprem-Hennen said.

'He allowed himself the luxury of ordering his personal dentist, Johannes Blaschke, into the Reich Chancellery eight times for a root canal treatment - normally this is dealt with in one or two sessions,' Deprem-Hennen said.

The records reportedly also showed that Hitler had a molar removed following gum disease.

Hugo Johannes Blaschke, an SS general, treated Hitler and other important Nazi figures for many years, Bild reported.
