r/sharkteeth

context: i made some poor mans pad thai tonight and had just bought some chili crisp oil i’ve been eager to use!! long story short, i took a bite, about broke my tooth, pulled this thorn looking thing out of my mouth and decided to discard the remainder of my food as this was extremely off putting to me lol. i love chili crisp oil & pad thai so this was really a bummer! what could this be? am i using the chili crisp oil wrong? should i have strained it prior to use?

A dremel, dental pick and apple cider vinegar did their jobs. I nicked the one side with the dremel but overall pretty happy with the result.

First NC trip of the season was awesome - super clear water with 80+ feet of visibility, an absolutely massive sea turtle who wanted to check out the teeth I found in exchange for pets, and a tiger shark out in the murk (heading the other direction fortunately)

This site had a lot of teeth sitting on the surface but super camouflaged with barnacles and growth. It’s cool finding a big one right in the open because to me that means I’m probably the only person who has ever been to that exact place

Top is 5.9, middle is a hair over 6, and didn’t measure the bottom

I loveee these colors :* If anyone happens to know who the mandible may belong to please share

Westmoreland State Park, Virginia. Can meg teeth even be this small?

Found our first two Great Whites in Summerville SC last week. Love the color on these, so different from our usual finds in the Peace River!

I believe this is an upper bull shark tooth. Found on Daufuskie Island!

I really like this one so I got it cleaned up quick!

Been a long time since I took this so there could be more than one but I know for sure there’s at least one angustidens in this pic. Have fun

Always stay on the lookout everyone! I went to pick up groceries, and walked out with another tooth in the collection 🤣

Spent 6 days in Cape San Blas Fl. with my fiancés family and was determined to find shark teeth while on vacation. We ended up finding 14 total, including my first ever tooth find (the white one). If anyone knows what types of sharks they came from that would be great!

We’re in Summerville SC right now and found our first ever angustidens (and two great whites you can sort of see in the background!). A few of these look a bit different and I’m thinking some could be auriculatus? We’ve only hunted the Peace River before these so we’re not great with ID’ing these. Any help is greatly appreciated!

What’s another tried and true method that’s less abrasive than white or apple cider vinegar? I’ve read hydrogen peroxide is an option. I got these on my first ever fossil dive in Venice last week so I’d prefer not to destroy them 😂

They truly don't get a whole lot better than this from the locality.

I’m new here and look forward to seeing fossils from the Paleocene and Miocene.

First time ever finding shark teeth. Initially I found 3 black, and later that afternoon I was surprised to look down and find an all white tooth begging for me to pick it up! Im interested in knowing your thoughts or being offered some insight.

Just found this on the beach. What kind of shark does this belong to?
