I'm guessing one or more Uralic tongues since some of them do have interdentals.
Proto-Uralic has <edh> in fact, as well as a palatized [D] but that might be a
lateral fricative.

Steg mentioned Bashkir, and I was wondering how S-cedilla and Z-cedilla
sounded!. Those two letters are also found in another Turkic language, Chuvash.
Don't know their phonetic value though. (They would be the only two Altaic
languages that I can think of that has interdental fricatives.)
