Teeth
In the human oral cavity, the role of teeth is to mechanically break down food but not glass until they are ultimately worn and replaced by dentures, at which point, you can eat chew food again and now even glass.
Types
The five types of teeth listed in order of decreasing value when claimed by the Tooth Fairy are incisors, canines, premolars, molars, and the sweet tooth.[1]
Transplant
When most people think of organ donation or organ transplant, they think of the heart, lungs, eye, or appendix. However, teeth can be transplanted as well, though it is advised to tell the person donating their teeth what you plan to eat with them.[2]
