Speaking of the Chinese "women"--I use the term loosely--gymnasts, I saw something on the news last evening--I forget if it was national or local--where they spoke to a pediatric dentist, who commented on one of the "women" missing an adult canine tooth, "missing" as in she had lost the primary tooth but the secondary tooth had not yet come in--evidence that she is nowhere near as old as she is supposed to be.

Interesting, Jeff.  But -- I'm playing devil's advocate here -- one could probably argue that one missing secondary tooth is just a fluke.  (For example, my older daughter only had three wisdom teeth -- which was actually a good thing when it came time for her to have them extracted).

Now two or more missing permanent teeth would make that argument more convincing.  :)

On a sad note, a few female gymnasts have suffered severe spinal injuries; namely, Julissa Gomez (USA) and Sang Lan (China).  There are plenty of risks involved in those routines.  (I'm glad my daughters chose ballet over gymnastics.)
