If you don't know Fantich & Young then it's safe to say that your shoe soles remain teeth-free. The British shoemakers are known for taking a strange approach to their shoe-making process and using strange supplies to supplant it.
We may be getting a clue as to where the baby teeth go when they're put under the pillow and replaced by money. Fantich & Young have taken red Mary Janes and are making them into a dentist's pipe dream. Fear not because the teeth used aren't real people's teeth (there would be more than a few ethical dilemmas with that), rather they are denture pieces.
We once though that sharks had the most rows of teeth but Fantich & Young are proving us wrong
