AceShowbiz - A report claiming that Charlie Sheen pulled on a knife on a dentist is not true. According to a previous report, a technician at the dental clinic claimed the "Anger Management" star had a fit on the dental chair when she administered nitrous oxide and he later pulled a knife on the dentist, adding that Sheen was high on rock cocaine. A representative for the actor Jeff Ballard has released a statement denying the allegations.
"Charlie was on meds for a shoulder injury and the combo of the Rx he was on along with the nitrous caused the reaction," the rep told TMZ. He added that Sheen did flail his arm and knocked over some instruments on the tray, but he did not attack the dentist.
Sheen's lawyer Marty Singer also explained the story, saying that the technician was lying because she was fired from the clinic. "The story is being made up by this woman [the dental technician] who was fired on Friday for violating HIPAA by telling her son Charlie was in the office. It got back to Charlie and the dentist fired her," Singer said.
The dentist reportedly also backed Sheen's story. Some sources at the law enforcement office told the site that the dentist was interviewed on Thursday and he said the technician lied. During the interview, there were no claims of knife attack or drugs.
