Remember when writers cared about keeping Wolverine's healing factor believable, so he got really hungry after healing from relatively small injuries? Good times.

His skull contains an inter-dimensional aperture that allow him to pull adamantium from another dimension.

It doesn't. His skull stays exactly where it is and his wolf-face gets extruded through it.

So are Wolverine's teeth adamantium-coated like the rest of his bones or not? If they are, why is this never depicted? If they're not, why not?

Yeah, but like... I'm pretty sure the couple of times we've seen Wolverine so completely destroyed that only his skeleton was left, his skull had teeth. Which implies his teeth are protected, too. But then you'd think you'd see the metal in everyday talking and such.

Once can be chalked down to beer goggles. Two is not discriminating. Three is having a type. And if I remember my classic Namor right, three isn't the end of "Namor has a really weird relationship with a sea monster/alien sea monster/sea monster in disguise that is technically female I guess".

Stuff like this is why Namor is secretly the best character in comics.

Wouldn't that just be Wolverine's healing factor, not adamantium teeth, accounting for that?

From what I've seen, the teeth always seem to be adamantium when he is depicted as a skeleton, but otherwise they are pearly whites.

the physiology changes over time and from writer to writer though.

Huh that seems like an actual sane-ish interpretation of it, raised strips of adamantium embedded in the bone and anchored to the other stips, but it doesn't let you do the burned/nuked to bare metal bones shots.

Bizarrely tooth enamel "is the hardest substance in the human body and contains the highest percentage of minerals,[1] 96%"

Or, like everything else, when he loses teeth, or has them broken, they regenerate new enamel, because I'd imagine just ripping them out and letting new permanent teeth grow in and drop through might be iffy. And it must happen pretty quickly, too - because I've never heard/seen him talk like Sylvester. There was a time when The Punisher shot out his tongue, though.

Also, this image pretty definitively shows Wolverine's teeth are loving strong, since in this panel they've just taken a point blank shotgun blast and are the only thing left other than metal (and eyes, for some reason, those - or his eyelids - must be adamantium too :v:):



His mouth was open too, so his tongue got shredded yet regenerated within something like the next ten pages.

More from the same issue, including Punisher shooting Wolverine in the balls to keep him down: http://www.againwiththecomics.com/2010/01/in-which-punisher-flattens-wolverine.html

And in the "Confederacy of Dunces" follow-up, Daredevil, Spider-Man, and Wolverine team up to bring Castle in, and Frank does this to Wolverine with an anti-tank missile:



Source: Punisher (2001) ...either #34 or #35, I don't remember.

The conclusion in #37, though, when Castle lets loose an amnesiac Bruce Banner/Hulk on the three after giving them one last chance to leave him alone, gives us this great panel:

If I could scan every page to share, I would, but the only source material I have available to me is the very-out-of-print and massive Garth Ennis Punisher Omnibus I paid 200 bucks for, and I'm not bending that spine for anyone.
