A Turkish man has suffered massive amounts of mouth pain after having his teeth extracted…by a janitor. According to Istanbul Civil Court documents, Hakan Yildirim called a dental clinic complaining of a “severe toothache.” That call was reportedly answered by Cemal Senaslan, who identified himself as a dentist and told Yildirim to come on into the office. Senaslan, who was really just hired to clean the office, then told Yildirim that his four front teeth would have to be removed. When asked why, Senaslan then got confrontational and said, “Are you teaching me my job???”
Yildirim later realized the magnitude of his mistake when he went to get a pain med prescription filled…and was told it couldn’t be because it wasn’t stamped by a doctor…so it wasn’t valid. The next day, in massive levels of pain, he went back to see Ibrahim Levent…who had no clue what had happened or what Yildirim was talking about. Yildirim ended up in the emergency room for the paid, and Senaslan was hit with a two-and-a-half-year jail sentence for “practicing dentistry without a diploma”
