SO FLOSSING IS OUT OF THE QUESTION

Not only do Komodo dragons have serrated, razor-sharp teeth that constantly replenish themselves — they're also iron-coated, according to a new study.

(Thanks to The Perts)

Clearly they are running out of things to study.

Someone should study the effects of Chipotle beauty products on the Komodos, what with their wrinkly skin and all.

Puff the serrated, razor-sharp toothed dragon. Where have all the iron-rich enamel coated flowers gone. The answer my friend is blowin' in his constantly replenishing, iron-coated boat with billowed sail. Long time passing. IF I had a hammer...all over this land

The orange teeth might also be explained by a diet rich in Doritos & cheese puffs.

There aren't many komodo dragons around here. Why not study the teeth of something more local, like squirrels ?

Titanium Implants.

It's expensive to keep replacing rusted, iron-coated teeth.

Liz Ard is right. And when the first dental surgeon is eaten by a patient...rates will go thru the roof!

this sounds like the lizard version of the character "Jaws" from "The Spy Who Loved Me" and "Moonraker"

All the better to EAT you, my dear!

@man tom - Good start! Right up there with “feeling good was good enough for you…good enough for you and Bobby McGoo.”
