Chile Pathologic Teeth

This catalog contains some true oddities of nature - the highly unusual yet beautiful pathologic shark teeth. Pathologic teeth are among the most bizarre and rare shark teeth to exist. This is a wonderful assortment of difficult to find pathologic teeth. These teeth are late Miocene-Pliocene age (4-6 million years ago). This is an incredible group of museum to near museum quality teeth. These teeth are infrequently seen for sale and the Chile site is producing some phenomenal specimens.

Note - 1) All teeth sizes are slant height unless otherwise noted. Click on photos to enlarge. Catalog updated January 23, 2009.
