Solution

The correct option is B teeth
Nouns are words that name people, things, places, animals, etc.

The sentence starts with all, which indicates that not one but more than one tooth has to be removed.
Option B: 'Teeth' is the plural form of the noun 'tooth'. Hence, option B is correct.
Option A: 'Tooths' is not the plural form of 'tooth'. It must be formed by replacing 'oo' and not adding 's' to the noun.
Options C: 'Tooth's' is a singular noun (tooth) in the possessive case ('s refers to possession).
Option D: Teeth's is a plural noun in the possessive case. But, the sentence does not indicate any possession.
Hence, these options are wrong.
