Creator of Jaws' metal teeth falsely claimed to be dental technician

The man who created the infamous metal teeth for James Bond villain Jaws has been fined for posing as a dental technician. Luis Fairman, whose dental technology company was chosen to provide the iconic teeth worn by the American actor Richard Kiel in the 1970s films The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker, was prosecuted by the General Dental Council (GDC). He admitted unlawfully claiming to be a dental technician even though he was not registered in the UK to work as one.
