Whale? Crocodile? Bear?

[Sallaf Banks]

Hello! I found one yesterday that's stumped me. I've used the NC fossil club book and the Google and I've not seen anything like this. The smoothness of the upper part is throwing me off as the other whale teeth I have are textured. Same with the crocodile. This was found in NC where the Pliocene Yorktown and Miocene Eastover are exposed. I can take measurements later if needed. Thanks in advance!

 I have trouble understand what you mean by the "upper part",  Is it the "red" or the "blue".  This seems to be a whale tooth with dentine at the top and enamel at the bottom.

 

I have a number of teeth with this texture..

 

or whale teeth that are smooth in both areas:

 

It is a whale tooth.  I like the enamel tip.

Yes, the dentine. Thank you for your reply and expertise.
