AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
→6.9 cm long Spinosaurus teeth
Its is a beautifully curved Spinosaurus teeth which we strongly think is in natural state without any restoration or repair.
This teeth also shows natural wear on the tip of the teeth probably due to feeding usage by the Spinosaurus before it was probably shed and replaced with a new teeth. The underside of the teeth gives the idea about the thickness of the teeth bone itself and the circular profile of the teeth at the attachment.
Spinosaurus teeth does not have serrations but enamel which is prominent at the tip and gradually tapers towards the root and it feature light longitudinal ridges & these feature are also visible on the provided teeth. These longitudinal ridges are called longitudinal striations in technical terms. Scientistic believe 2 to 3 different types of Spinosaurus lived in Africa based on the those longitudinal striations and the teeth morphology in general.
This teeth is likely at the front on the mouth because its more curved, which is important to properly hold onto prey while the teeth is gets pierced through the prey like fish or turtle.
The overall teeth is in excellent shape and is a valuable specimen.
