eyetooth
Canine in mouth
An eyetooth is one of the pointed teeth in the upper jaw, positioned below the eye—also called a canine tooth.
The phrase give one's eyeteeth means to sacrifice something valuable: I'd give my eyeteeth for tickets to that show.
The expression suggests parting with something important and irreplaceable.
