Real Madrid's Brazilian football superstar Ronaldo got more than he bargained for when he went to see a dentist in Rio de Janeiro.
The former three-time world player of the year came out with gleaming white nashers and a new girlfriend.
El Gordo (fatty) as he is affectionately known in Spain, having once been known as El Phenomeno (the phenomenon), is seeing dentist Erika Abreu, according to Brazilian paper O Globo.
Goofy
Social commentator Ancelmo Gois claims that after a few sessions in the dentist's chair to whiten his famously goofy teeth, Ronaldo invited Abreu to spend Christmas with him in Rio.
The couple flew first class to Madrid before heading to Paris to see in the New Year together.
The lovebirds are now back in Madrid where Ronaldo has hired a dentist's surgery specifically for Abreu to finish his treatment.
Split
O Globo claimed Ronaldo had wasted little time since splitting from Brazilian top model Raica de Oliveira, who lives in New York, in September.
He has dated a string of Brazilian beauties, marrying soccer player and model Milene Domingues before moving in with another top model, Daniela Cicarelli, while still married to Domingues.
That ended after only 63 days together as Cicarelli headed back to Brazil claiming the striking superstar had cheated on her.

Conte became the first coach to win the Italian championship with three different teams. “Everyone contributed to this — but the coach most of all,” Napoli captain Giovanni Di Lorenzo said. “Napoli needed him to get back on top.

SSC Napoli coach Antonio Conte has dragged the team back from disaster and restored them to the top of Italian Serie A, but his future at the Scudetto winners is in doubt even after a triumphant season. The fiery 55-year-old has exceeded preseason expectations and bolstered his reputation as a serial winner by guiding Napoli to their fourth Scudetto, and second in three seasons. However, he might well be on his way in the summer after just one season at the helm as his charged relationship with Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis has simmered throughout the campaign. Conte has said
