The war of Tongue and Teeth

It's my firm belief that your tongue and teeth do not get along. Evidence would be that if you have a toothache your tongue will insist on jabbing that particular tooth over and over again.

Or another example is for no real reason whatsoever your teeth will clamp down on your tongue in a vicious bite!

Now I can understand why there might be some animosity between them. After all, teeth do all the work of grinding and mashing food but only the tongue can taste it. Also, when a person smiles they get a nice compliment on their beautiful white teeth and nothing is said on how pink someones tongue is.

Enemies that have to forever live next door.
