I don't actually touch the front of the tooth, just go into the gullet to get the bottom of the tooth.

I am going to have to give that a try next time a blade breaks.
The same safety issues come up with disposing of metal banding and at work we have a machine that cuts the banding up into ~6" pieces, so we just run broken band saw blades through there as well.
Most cities of any size have sharpening businesses. Check google with the name of the nearest city and the word "sharpening" or "carbide" (as sharpening carbide cutters is usually where these outfits make their real money).
Often times the retailer like Woodcraft offer sharpening service, but what they really do is have the sharpening guys pick up at their store once a week and mark up the cost.
I'm lucky in that we a sharpening business pick up weekly where I work, so I can piggy back my personal jobs on top of the ones for my employer and just reimburse the company.
