See her job as finished and pass the teeth to the next holder? Foreshadow her own death just like Eb is foreshadowing his when using the Blackstaff?

Reinforcement of power, control, knowledge and dominance over Harry. Mab knows his deepest darkest secrets, even that he can't dance to anything but ballroom.
