Vengeful dentist yanks ex-boyfriend’s teeth story is a hoax

Update May 9, 12:33 p.m.

It has been revealed that a previous story circulating around the internet and blogged about by Shine On was a hoax. The story ran with the headline "Dentist yanks ex-boyfriend's teeth as revenge; now faces jail time"

Yahoo! News reports that MSNBC contributor Erin Tennant dug further into the story to reveal:

  • The Polish police agency in the region where the incident reportedly took place is not investigating any such case.

  • Poland's Chamber of Physicians and Dentists is not investigating any case like the one reported. Nor, is a dentist named Anna Maćkowiak listed on its professional register.

  • News outlets in Poland did not report the story. Some, however, reported the foreign media's coverage of what they called a "prank."

  • The original story was traced back to Britain's Daily Mail newspaper. The writer Simon Tomlinson, says he does not know where the story originated, despite its bearing his byline. "I've drawn a bit of a blank," he told MSNBC.

  • American Dental Association's national spokesperson, David Johnson Jr., said the story was highly improbable because most dentists are equipped to administer drugs only for conscious sedation dentistry. That would mean the man would've known all his teeth were being pulled as it was happening.

Here is the original version of the blog post written by Shine On:

Stand aside, bunny-boilers of the world! All may be fair in love and war, but when it comes to vengeance, you may have met your match.

Marek Olszewski's flossing days are over. And maybe even his philandering days. According to the Daily Mail, the 45-year-old Polish man dumped his dentist girlfriend, 34-year-old Anna Machowiak, for another woman. Mere days later, Olszewski somehow thought it was a reasonable idea to go to his jilted ex for dental surgery where he got more work done than he had bargained for.

Machowiak allegedly removed every last one of Olszewski's teeth while he was under sedation.

"I knew something was wrong because when I woke up I couldn't feel any teeth and my jaw was strapped up with bandages," Olszewski tells the Daily Mail.

"I tried to be professional and detach myself from my emotions," Machowiak tells the Daily Mail. "But when I saw him lying there, I just thought, 'What a bastard.'"

According to Fox News, Olszewski didn't realize the full extent of what had happened in the chair until he got home and looked in a mirror. Machowiak is being investigated for malpractise and for abusing the trust of a patient.

As for Olszewski, he is single once again. His new girlfriend apparently couldn't deal with his new, toothless appearance.

Note to Olszewski, you should probably re-assess your judgment when it comes to the women you date.
