My aunt had a 3/4 gold crown on one of her front teeth, I thought it was the coolest thing ever, and i asked my dad how i could get a gold tooth.
he said when i lost a tooth, if i didn't put my tongue in the socket it would grow in gold. It is impossible to keep a tongue out of a socket, but I once managed to do so nearly all day.
alas, I always blew it, and only years later did I find out about crowns.
