Found these sifting gravel yesterday pretty sure the top two are teeth hoping the bottom one is a frag of a large tooth.

The bottom is a mastodon or gompothere tooth frag and I think the second to bottom one is a mammoth tooth plate from the back of the tooth. Not sure what the top one is.

This is a complete Mammoth tooth,  about 12-15 inches and longer..Mammothtooth.jpg.09d33290c167c2f9876d5732265f4509.jpg

 

This is the bottom of the tooth showing the small roots....

Most of these teeth get stepped on , crushed, tumbled into rocks and bridges during hurricanes,  and end up in very small pieces like the ones you have ....

 

But if you keep at it , you might one day be as lucky as @digit
