I'd argue you still have one skeleton if you lose limbs or teeth.
Amount of skeletons is an integer representing the anount of bone structures holding and protecting human body (or whatever's left of it).
The real question is, how much of which parts of skeleton can we lose with it still being skeleton instead of a set of bones?
Skeleton of thesus?
