The_bro87 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I’ve had this for a while, and always assumed it was real. I saw a video of someone looking at fake teeth, and they said you could tell because you could see bubbles in the tooth from if it was a mold of some sort. It’s a little over 5 inches long, and I believe it was an Atlantic Ocean find, but I don’t remember much more about where it was supposedly found. I circled the area that I thought looked the most bubble like, but I’m not really sure what to think. Any help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darktooth Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Very real, it is just worn. Alot of enamel missing. I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caldigger Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 That depression you are thinking is a bubble is actually a hole made by burrowing clams. There are thousands of these teeth found with those holes ( many much more riddled with them than yours ). The air bubble holes from resin are usually much smaller from the size of a pin prick to the diameter of a small brad nail. This looks to be a genuine tooth and of a good size at that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilNerd Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I agree with @Darktooth and @caldigger. It’s worn, but looks like a nice real tooth none the less.
