But seriously, teeth of all kinds have been used in jewelry in many cultures
around the world. I personally don't wear them, even with crystals glued to
them! hahahahahahahha

Many "primitive" (i.e. low-tech) cultures use them as combination decoration
and status symbols -- hunters wear teeth from their kills to demonstrate their
prowess. I think Fire Mountain sells some "tooth" beads, though they may be
artificial.
