Consulting wikipedia for the density of neutron stars... Apparently the 
crust has a very low density so teeth made from superficial material 
might weigh only 100kg or so each. But they could weight a billion times 
more than that.
I don't think that you could make a scratch in neutron star material, 
not even with diamond, if that is the question.
