Teeth appears in a Sesame Street sketch first shown in Episode 0406.
Teeth visits an employment agency to find a job. He can't take the proposed jobs of smelling and listening, but he knows a nose and an ear that can. When asked what he does well, Teeth says that he can bite and chew things. He demonstrates by chomping up the desk.
The set of teeth returned in another major role, referred to as "Toothy," in the sketch "Toothy Takes a Partner." Here, the teeth seeks help from a talent agency to refresh his worn-out act, and he finds his co-star in Toothbrush.
Teeth also makes a cameo appearance in "Disco Toothbrush."
