Since the first sharks evolved
over 400 million years ago, ways of life in
the sea have changed very little. As a result, many of today's sharks are
much like their ancient ancestors. Modern sharks,
such as the Great White Shark, can tell us a
great deal about sharks that have been extinct for millions of years.
Shark teeth are produced on a conveyor belt of gum
tissue that lines the inside surface of the upper and lower jaws. New
shark teeth are formed within this gum tissue and are carried into a functional
position closer to the edge of the mouth. Each shark tooth is
functional for a few days or weeks before its nutrient supply is cut off and
the tooth falls out.
Because shark teeth are dense and tough, and
composed of relatively stable calcium phosphate, their potential for
fossilization is high.
The shark teeth on this page are just a few of the thousands of teeth we have in
stock. We have a great supply of fossil Great White shark teeth in perfect
condition. If you do not see what you are looking for on this page, please call us

Mackerel Shark Teeth This
shark is known from fossil teeth and vertebra. Like other sharks, the
skeleton of Otodus was composed of cartilage and not bone, resulting in
relatively few preserved skeletal structures appearing within the fossil
record. The teeth of this shark are large with triangular crown, smooth
cutting edges, and visible cusps on the roots. Some Otodus teeth also
show signs of evolving serrations. Scientists determined that Otodus
evolved into the genus Carcharocles, given substantial fossil evidence
in the form of transitional teeth. |

WIRE WRAPPED FOSSIL SHARK TOOTH NECKLACES |
|
The Lamna (also known as Otodus) shark was one of the
largest sharks of the Late Cretaceous. It was one of the dominant
predators of its time, and shared the water with a host of terrifying sea
reptiles. The Lamna could get to over 40' long, and its tan-colored teeth
are discovered in the Sahara Desert of Morocco where the Atlantic Ocean
used to overlap.
Millions of years later, new species of sharks would
also swim above Florida during the Miocene epoch. Quite a few of these
sharks are ones that are still living today, such as the Bull shark, Lemon
shark, and Dusky shark, whose black-colored teeth are featured on these
necklaces. Like Morocco during the Cretaceous, Florida was under water
during the Miocene epoch because of what was once a much larger Atlantic
Ocean. |
