"Nothing But the Tooth" is the second segment of the eleventh episode of the first season of The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. The title is a parody of “Nothing But the Truth.” It originally aired on March 27, 1988.
Summary[]
When Pooh’s “sweet tooth” falls off and disappears, everyone is out to find the culprit.
Plot[]
Pooh wakes up at “sixteen o’clock”, but slips on a bunch of marbles. Piglet comes in to say “good morning” but does the same thing. Piglet eventually bumps into Pooh, causing both to slide into the wall. When Pooh straightens up, he gets poked by “a marble that looks very much like a tooth.” (It’s actually a tooth.) Piglet and Pooh wonder where it came from. They ask Rabbit, who replies that it is Pooh’s sweet tooth because Pooh hasn’t eaten any honey since he found the tooth. Furthermore, until Pooh gets the tooth back, he is restricted from honey. Rabbit attempts to tie the tooth back to Pooh’s mouth, but actually ties a string attached by a tooth to his snout. Then Rabbit takes it to his garden and plants it next to some sweet potatoes and sweet peas. Apparently, Gopher has been digging under Rabbit's garden again, causing Rabbit, Pooh and Piglet to fall into Gopher's tunnels. The tooth is lost inside Gopher's tunnels. As Gopher and the others enter his workshop, he discovers that it has been prowled through by the Pack Rats, who took things from Gopher’s workshop (including the tooth) to switch them with walnuts. Owl finds the tooth and takes it from the Pack Rats for a bobble on his doorbell chain. The Pack Rats manage to sneak away from Owl's house with the tooth by switching it with another walnut. Pooh, Piglet, Rabbit and Gopher finally corner the Pack Rats in their workshop. The Pack Rats give up the tooth because Pooh finds it hiding behind their backs. Later that day, Pooh tells Christopher Robin about the tooth, which was actually hidden inside his marbles. Pooh puts it under his pillow for the Tooth Fairy and the next day he wakes up with a pot of honey much better than walnuts!

Trivia[]
- Recording date: 18th January 1988.
- This is the first of three episodes in The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh where Tigger does not appear, followed by "Fish Out of Water" and "Owl in the Family."

- During the first part of the intro to the 1989-1991 episodes of The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, you can see the snippet of Pooh waking up from bed and sliding across the room with the marbles. However, the snippet has been horizontally mirrored such that Pooh is facing the right of the screen instead of the left. Also during the Learning Song for the home video releases, the shot where Pooh shows Piglet his watch that has no hands is rotated left.
