A long time ago at the place I was working this happened to a person I was working with. He would open his mouth and you would hear a radio station coming out of his mouth. I didn’t believe it at first for he was known to be a practical joker, so I made sure there were no radios around (searched everywhere) and looked into his mouth to see if he was hiding a small rado. Sure enough nothing was there and there definitely was a radio station coming out of his mouth. What I think had happened is when he went to the dentist that day (we worked the afternoon shift) and that the dental work is the source of this strange phenomenon. The only thing I can think of that there was a radio being played somewhere else in the plant (The place manufacture paint) and that the sound resonated off his fillings. This radio station disappeared from his mouth shortly afterwards and a matter of fact I think it disappeared during the shift.
This happened to one person that used a grinder and some of the grit got on his filings and he picked up a local station. For these and other reasons, to prevent “power wars” US AM stations were limited to 50 KW, though most operate on much less. To get around this, some “border blasters” such as XERF and XELO used to have transmitters on the Mexican border and run the transmission line across to to a tower in Mexico where there was no limit.
When radio first was broadcast, before there were limits on power, people in rural areas would hear stations at night along the roads with fences. The wires of the fences would act as antennae and vibrate, thus producing the sound.

How can you tell you’re picking up a radio station from your teeth without earphones or speakers?

Oye at least with braces he’d have an antenna of a sort?
