Post Gold teeth - God, scam or psi?

In my seaside town here in the UK my local newspaper has raised a few eyebrows by running a front page story on two women who reckon they have received gold teeth 'from God'.
Here's the link to the story :

You will see my comments under the Skysurfer tag, below the story.
I wrote "As a lifelong student of the paranormal, I believe these two women who stick their necks out with such an outrageous story, deserve at least to be listened to.
On the other hand they deserve also to be properly investigated - and thus exposed if they are frauds.
They also deserve a newspaper with reporters that will do a proper investigative job on their claims.
Where are the photos of their teeth?
Where is the interview with their dentists? Should we somehow be content with one woman saying the dentist confirms a miracle?
Were the teeth all gold or gold filled?
Do the dentists confirm the teeth just happened to have gaping cavities ready to be filled with the gold?
Who is doing forensics on the teeth?
With all due respect to the women concerned - how can we be sure they didn't just go out and get their teeth filled at other dentists?
There are a million questions but the Christian reporter doesn't seem capable of asking them and the Echo's follow up story consisted completely of anonymous quotes from this website!
This particular holy roller evangelist is well known for this gold teeth gimmick - along with his 'slaying in the spirit' - people falling down in some kind of trance.
There is another guy on the web running something called Matrix Energetics - not Christian at all - who has similar phenomena - people falling over when he touches them and claimed miracles.
He doesn't label it 'God' - he claims to be using quantum physics which seems to theorise any number of parallel worlds where just about everything is possible.
If this gold teeth thing is for real it will be because the power of intention when coupled with strong belief, seems very occasionally to affect and even produce matter.
In a future world all this will be embraced by science but for now let the minions continue to wallow in superstition and believe paranormal phenomena is either God or the Devil doling out favours or curses."
Subsequently I've looked at this issue on the web and fin there seems to be a war going on between Christians who argue it's divine, those who say it's demonic and those who say it's baloney.
I haven't researched the JRF crowd but I can't see them cancelling their dentists appointments any time soon.....
What I'd like to know is - has anyone here seen any real evidence that this dental materialisation is the whole tooth?
In passing here's the first of a video clip trio I found:

I'm new here and am sorry to make such a whacky subject my first post but as they say here in the UK - ' In for a penny, in for a pound'
