Besides the number system, I know of two:
soldei ce'o lurdei ce'o fagdei ce'o jaudje ce'o mudydei ce'o jimdei ce'o 
derdei .i
xundei ce'o najdei ce'o peldei ce'o ri'odje ce'o cicnydei bladei ce'o zirdei
In both, Wednesday gets a word ending in "-dje" as the best-scoring lujvo.

As to the teeth: ka'arde'i ce'o gerde'i ce'o crazalde'i ce'o zalde'i.
