Mosasaur Tooth with Partial Root Kit

Mosasaur Tooth with Partial Root Kit

  • $25.00


This kit contains an authentic mosasaur tooth from the Cretaceous deposits of Morocco.  This tooth differs from our other mosasaur tooth kit in that this one has a portion of the root attached to the tooth.  The teeth are generally manually attached to the root with glue and repair is generally present.  The tooth has been placed in an artificial matrix of plaster and sand.  The kit contains an informational booklet describing the tooth and a wooden dowel that can be used to expose it.  Directions for exposing the tooth are included, but directions are also provided on this web page.  The kits are approximately 4.5" L x 3.5" W x 1.5" thick.  Kits are individually made and will vary slightly in size.  Tooth shown is a representative sample of those included in the kits and each one will be slightly different as these are real fossil teeth.  Generally will keep kids occupied for up to a couple of hours.  Recommended for ages 6 and up with adult supervision.
