Palaeocarcharodon orientalis

This catalog contains exceptional teeth from the earliest Great White shark, Palaeocarcharodon orientalis, the Pigmy White shark. These teeth are noted for their wide triangular crowns and side cusps which are heavily and very irregularly serrated. P. orientalis was the king of the Paleocene (approx. 60 million years ago). These teeth are fairly rare and very showy, making them an excellent addition to your Great White shark teeth collection.

Please note that exceptional P. orientalis are hard to locate. Most teeth are destroyed when collected due to the crude extraction techniques. Nearly all teeth are damaged (most lose one or more of their side cusps or have broken roots that are reattached). The trick is locating teeth that have little to no damage and are repaired quite nicely (and correctly). The typical teeth on the market are very poorly repaired and quite often exhibit restored areas. Many of the teeth for sale by others have completely remanufactured roots - beware! I have gone through large quantities to find teeth that are very showy with no or minimal repair that can not be detected on the display side. The collector's quality, extra large teeth of high quality like these are seldom seen. This is our largest selection of top quality teeth. A rare treat!

Note - all teeth sizes are slant height unless otherwise noted. Click on photos to enlarge. Catalog updated on March 9, 2008.
