Hang on....newborns don't have teeth

Good point .....

Maybe they meant the tooth that was still in the gum 

Are they formed in the gum at birth though....she was examining proper teeth

Yes , I think so .....

But a fully formed external tooth can't really tell you anything  surely....she said those came from babies about 9 months old

it's the dna inside a formed tooth that can be there for years, probably thousands of years providing it isn't damaged

just thinking it might not survive over thousands of years as I suppose  they could be contaminated by anything in that time but may be wrong
