Beware Of Modern Day Tooth Fairies

A German dentist has been fined 6,000 euros for taking a woman's teeth out. The problem was the woman was wearing false teeth at the time. It transpired that the woman owed the dentist 700 euros for treatment not covered by insurance. As a way of recovering the debt the dentist went to the woman's home and physically removed her false teeth from her mouth. His lawyer issued a statement, on behalf of the doctor, saying he apologised and that he blew a fuse because he was under a lot of professional and personal stress. The woman appeared in court with no teeth and said she did not want to wear dentures again because of the stress the incident had caused.
