These are exactly what you think they are - baby teeth. A drawer in my mom's dresser fell and I found these while helping her clean up. I immediately took these downstairs to show my brothers. Scott's are in the middle - as the oldest, he has the most saved. Brian's are in the red and mine are in the clear container. My mom sold Tupperware when my brother's were little, which is why theirs are in Tupperware containers. I have the fewest baby teeth left (naturally, being the youngest). My mom said that when my dad was the tooth fairy, he would throw them out. Apparently, that responsibility became more his as they had more kids. My mom was very scared I would throw these out when I took them from her room.
This discovery came before heading out to Marge's funeral. Marge was my third grandmother, always a fixture in my life and our family. She was an amazing woman and will be very very missed...
