Answer 1

Seems different artists do this in different ways.

This site has some really pretty wraps:  http://www.jewelrybyjill.net/sharksteeth...

And this one explains how to get started doing it:  http://www.43things.com/entries/view/214...

Good luck.

Answer 2

Take some wire and wrap it around the base of the tooth first, and then loop it around the top. Do this two or three times so it stays.

Answer 3

Be careful because sharks teeth are sometimes serrated. Try sand it back around the top very flat and put it in like a neck lace holder - superglue sounds like a friend for you
