Old tooth in glass of Coke
What happens when an old tooth is placed in a glass of coke for a week? The kids started this experiment today in a doubly desperate (a term they often use to describe how badly they need to go to the bathroom) attempt to justify that they can still drink copious amounts of Coke. Yes, the tooth is mine – a wisdom tooth yanked out by my dentist several years ago. It might be a rock now and nothing will dissolve it but we'll see. Check back in a week for the results. Rumour has it this is a myth, however, my friend swears he dissolved his daughter's tooth but the tooth fairy still paid up.
Eight weeks later, you can find the results of the experiment here.
