Angry dentist uses hammer

An angry Israeli dentist used a hammer to smash the teeth of a patient after becoming embroiled in a dispute at his surgery in Tel Aviv.

The patient had come to collect the results of some dental tests on the son of one of his friends but the dentist refused to hand them over, leading the pair to come to blows.

The 49-year-old dentist was later arrested, according to police. His victim was left searching for another dental surgeon to repair the damage.
