Tooth

Updated 5 min read

A Tooth does not come from an animal or a shop in Graveyard Keeper 2. It comes out of a skull, and the skull comes out of a corpse you were going to open anyway, which is why most players never notice the route exists at all. The whole chain is two crafts at two benches, both at mastery one, and the research behind it costs seventeen spheres because the first two nodes on the autopsy line are free. Taking the skull needs no materials whatsoever, and it leaves a replacement behind so the body is still fit to bury. You will want more than the one the Fairy asks for, because teeth appear in 349 alchemy mixes.

Tooth does not come from an animal or a shop. It comes out of a skull, and the skull comes out of a corpse you were going to open anyway, which is why most players never notice the route exists.

The whole thing is two crafts at two benches, both at mastery one, and the research behind it costs seventeen spheres in total.

You will want more than the one the Fairy asks for, because teeth turn up in 349 alchemy mixes.

Seventeen spheres, and most of it is free

The autopsy line starts at a root node. Autopsy, Basic costs nothing at all and has no parents, so Autopsy Table I is available from your first hour. Soft parts, the node after it, is also free.

Skin and Bones is 5 and 2, then Skull and Teeth is 5 and 5. That is 5, 5 and 7 from nothing to the recipe.

The table itself is the only real cost, at four Board, two Piece of stone and four Bronze Nails, built in the Morgue.

You are on this path whether you want teeth or not

Skull and Teeth is the parent of Reanimation, which is the node that gives you the Resurrection Table and the Bronze Zombie Collar. If you intend to make your own zombie workers you have to pass through here.

So the teeth are close to free. The research is a step you were taking anyway and the input is a body part you were otherwise leaving in the corpse.

Take the skull at the Autopsy Table

The craft is called Remove and replace skull, it runs at Autopsy Table I in one second at mastery one, and it needs no materials whatsoever beyond the body already on the table.

The name is literal. You take the real skull and leave a replacement behind, so the corpse is still fit to bury afterward and the grave it goes into scores the same as it would have.

Skulls are graded the way every organ is, by red and white skulls, and there are six variants of them. Two of the six can be crafted upward with organ improvers at the bench, which matters for zombies and not at all for teeth.

One skull, one tooth

Carry the skull to the Formulation Bench and the Tooth recipe turns one into one in four seconds. It costs two energy, sits at mastery one, and pays 1 a craft.

Any skull works, so spend your worst

The recipe accepts a group rather than a named item, and all six skull grades belong to it. A tooth made from your best skull is identical to one made from your worst.

Grade the skulls you keep for zombies and feed the rejects to the bench. There is no reason to ever put a good one through it.

What teeth are for

Alchemy, mostly. Tooth appears in 349 mixes, which makes it the fourteenth most used ingredient in the game, and it stacks to fifty, so banking them is easier than making them to order.

The one named use outside the laboratory is Summon Fairy, which wants one Tooth, one Dream Dust and one Comet’s Tail at the Kitchen Table. That is the quest Chasing Fairy Lights, and the tooth is the easy third of it.

The Comet’s Tail is the part that gates that quest, because it is bought from the Astrologer in Town and Town needs opening first. If you are stuck on the summon, it is almost never the tooth.

From skulls. Take a skull out of a body at the Autopsy Table, then turn it into a Tooth at the Formulation Bench. Nothing else produces them and no vendor sells them.

What do you need to research for teeth?
