  There’s still debate over how exactly teeth originated.

    Sorry but it’s pretty well known that teeth developed because our skeletons wanted some air.

      Just be careful to not let the rest of those bones out. They try at night because they don’t like to be wet constantly.

        Teeth aren’t actually bone, technically, afaik.

  My ancestor must have suffered from some sort of scale baldness, as I congenitally lack 4 permanent teeth. We don’t suffer from actual baldness though, luckily.
