Fun Fact – incisors

incisors

Anatomy def: a sharp-edged tooth at the front of the mouth, adapted for cutting; four incisors in each jaw.

Outlander def: front eight teeth (four on top, four on bottom) used for threatening, nipping, biting, ripping!

Learn about the incisors and all the other teeth in Anatomy Lesson #14, Jamie and Claire of The Anatomy of a Kiss!

Read about Jamie’s beautiful, teeth in the Outlander book:

His features were indistinct, but the moonlight caught the gleam of teeth as he grinned. “Well then, since ye don’t want me to hurt myself, I suppose that means as you’re comin’ with me?”

And…

He reached out for one of the long-bladed grasses and pulled it smoothly from its sheath… Square white teeth crunched down on the grass stem.

Read about the effect of the standing stones on Claire’s teeth in Outlander book:

The sounds were all around me, making my teeth ache and my head spin. My vision began to blur. I do not know now whether I went toward the cleft in the main stone, or whether it was accidental, a blind drifting through the fog of noise.
