When I was little I used to believe that when you lost a tooth, if you didn't stick your tongue in the gap of where it was a gold tooth would grow in there. My Grandfather had told me that and no matter how hard I tried, I could never keep my tongue out of the gap. Needless to say I never grew in a gold tooth!!
