Teeth on glue: how a swindler in Florida signed up for dentistry (2 photos + 1 video)

Let's face it - a good dentist's services are expensive, but people by nature always want to save at least a little.





In Florida, the police caught a self-proclaimed tooth fairy. 35-year-old Emily Martinez called herself a smile master and glued veneers to clients using superglue. Yes, the same one you use to fix slippers. In normal clinics, one veneer costs from nine hundred to one and a half thousand dollars, and she had a full mouth for two and a half thousand. Tempting, right? But the clients paid for their greed.

Martinez ran a beauty salon in Pinellas Park. She bragged on social media that she made smiles like Hollywood. People fell for the low prices without checking the license. As a result, teeth crumbled, gums became inflamed, and the pain was so bad you could climb the walls. One guy spent one thousand six hundred dollars, and the veneers fell off three times. Another doctor later said: "It was nail glue." Can you imagine?

The victims did not remain silent. Angry clients turned the swindler over to the police. It turned out that this was not her first blunder. In March, she was caught in Hillsborough County for the same scheme, but she changed the name of the business and continued. Police say she even pulled teeth and worked with children. Martinez is now behind bars. She faces time for illegal practice. The American Dental Association is sounding the alarm: such professionals can ruin teeth forever.
