A tooth!?
#12
The last time I was at my dentist he said my kids should take my crowns when I die. I let my youngest know if he sees my daughter with her foot on my chest and a wrench in my mouth, it's ok, don't panic, I'm already gone.

Found a wedding band one time. An extremely mummified mouse another time - so far gone my kitties weren't interested. Almost nothing surprises me. I agree with others, cash in the tooth for more mad money for machines.

grave robbers use to steal these crowns and/or fillings for the gold and sell them. take a picture, keep that and sell the tooth. you have to let us know what you decided to do and if you sell ... how much did you get.

I will! I haven't had time to search locally to see where to take it but whatever I get will go into the sm mad money!

I used to work for a dentist and dental gold is not as valuable as jewelry gold, due to the alloy type, but gold is gold and it does have some value. The tooth can be broken away and the gold salvaged. Don't send it in with the tooth still in there or they will send it back. Good luck.

LOL nothing yet! I read that I should try and dissolve the tooth and that coke would work. I didn't have coke s I used 7 up. Apparently that doesn't work as well lol. I need to buy a coke!
