  Tooth fungus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tooth fungi are a relatively small polyphyletic group of fungi whose mushroom bears its spores on a hymenium - a layer of "mother cells" - that grow on the outside of tooth-like spines, or "teeth".
Although many tooth fungi are hard and inedible, some are prized both for their flavor and their ease of identification, such as Hericium erinaceus, the "bearded tooth mushroom".
Another fungus - the toothed jelly fungus, Pseudohydnum gelatinosum - has "teeth" but is an even more distantly related, as one of the jelly fungi.

 Trees for Life - Species Profile: Pinewood tooth fungi
The orange tooth fungus (Hydnellum aurantiacum) and the blue tooth fungus (Hydnellum caeruleum) are restricted to the native pinewoods, and the greenfoot tooth fungus (Sarcodon glaucopus) is only known from Abernethy, Glen Affric and Strathfarrar.
The hyphae are cylindrical, thin-walled branching tubes containing the cytoplasm of the fungus, and are the fungal equivalent of cells in plants and animals.
As tooth fungi in Scotland have often been found growing on bare sites such as eroded river gravels, path edges and acid, sandy soils, it is thought that they play a role in nutrient cycling or recycling, and in assisting the colonisation of these areas by trees.

 Tooth Decay / Cavities Symptoms, Information & Causes
Tooth decay is a bacterial disease that results in gradual deterioration and erosion of the teeth.
The body of the tooth is affected and is not treated quickly, the pulp in the root of the tooth suffers, causing a toothache.
Tooth decay is caused by the presence of bacteria, the amount of sugars in the mouth and the health of the tooth enamel.

 FUNGUS, The species specific understanding of, and difference between bacterial phase and fungal phase developments in ...
The notion that anyone is viewing fungus balls in phase contrast or darkfield is technically a complete misconception, as the forms which are being regarded as fungal developments are appearing in an alkaline milieu in the blood which will not support the fungal stages of development.
The forms that are being viewed (and mistaken for fungus stage) are actually colloid thecits, thrombocytes, chondrits, ascits, synascits, and mychits, all of which are part of the bacterial phase of development, which develops in an alkaline milieu.
The primitive bacterial phase microorganisms that are mistakenly called fungus may be part of the developmental phase of a species that has a fungal variant or may culminate as a fungus, but it is an error to call it a fungus in the blood.

 Bearded tooth - Hericium erinaceum: More Information - ARKive
Bearded tooth fungus is associated with old trees, particularly in woods where there has been a continuous history of old trees.
This fungus produces its fruit body (the visible part of the fungus) from late August to December.
The main part of the fungus is usually invisible, and consists of a mass of fine threads called mycelia, which are underground, or within the body of another organism.

 Ridged tooth - Hydnellum scrobiculatum: More Information - ARKive
Members of this group are also known as 'tooth fungi' (fungi that release their spores from tooth-like structures), and all have a short stalk or 'stipe', hence the name 'stipitate' (7).
With the exception of the earpick fungus Auriscalpium vulgare, all stipitate hydnoid fungi are ectomycorrhizal species; they form close symbiotic relationships with trees, and derive some of their nutrients from the tree's roots.
Ridged tooth fungus is afforded general protection under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, but it is not one of the four species of non-lichenized fungi given special protection under Schedule 8.

Thrush is an infection of the mouth caused by the candida fungus, also known as yeast.
Candida infection is not limited to the mouth; it can occur in other parts of the body as well, causing diaper rash in infants or vaginal yeast infections in women.
Small amounts of the candida fungus are present in the mouth, digestive tract, and skin of most healthy people and are normally kept in check by other bacteria and microorganisms in the body.

The same is true of the pore, the spine (or tooth), the coral-like structure, the vase, parchment or crustlike structures, and the tremelloid or jellylike fruiting body.
In addition, the gasteromycetes, which used to be thought to be a coherent group based on a fruiting body that remained enclosed until it was mature, has been shown to contain taxa more closely related to many of the mushrooms with gills, pores, teeth, and so on, than to one another.
That is, a gilled mushroom might be more closely related to a bolete, a tooth fungus or a coral mushroom than to another gilled mushroom.
