Teeth are only covered by enamel, below them is bone. And I am rather positive that nails are made from a slightly different material.
Some animals have fast-growing teeth, e.g. rabbits. Human teeth probably probably do not grow b/c our monkey ancestors mostly ate soft fruit, which did not damage teeth, so no need to re-grow itIf fingernails and teeth are both made out of enamal. then how come fingernails grow so fast and teeth dont?
Great answer! Lets vote.
