Rare teeth from Otodus angustidens, the direct ancestor to the Extinct Giant White shark (Otodus megalodon). Otodus angustidens teeth are noted for their triangular crowns and small side cusps that are fully serrated. The serrations are very sharp and very well pronounced. These teeth are from the Oligocene (25 - 32 million years ago).
