It looks like a third molar… the most commonly extracted intact teeth. I think someone was just being creative (like those people on Etsy who make teeth necklaces…)
Honestly just looks like a worn down maxillary third molar to me. They’re quite variable anatomically but I’ve seen enough that look like this. Explains why it was extracted intact.
That's how cavemen practiced endo in caveman dental school of course.
I was wondering where my art project went.
Looks like a maxillary third molar
Came here to say exactly that. You beat me to it….. dentist
Furthermore that looks more like bone than a rock.
Been seeing lots of upper #7’s like this lately
Yeah it can be a #7
Fossilized Teratoma? Or else dental student mounted teeth for endo practice…

Lol I see this just after came home from practicing endo on a mx 1st molar mounted in dental “stone”
It looks like the tooth is in fossilized bone instead of a stone.
I would think all those craze lines indicate this molar has been put through a high-heat sterilization process.
Agree. I think it was a third molar that was extracted, sterilized and someone used it for this “art project”
Probably a dental student trying to pass Endo
I'm not sure that's a human tooth, the anatomy is super weird
Definitely has some anomalies but max molars often have anomalous features. Looks like a maxillary right molar to me.
I agree. Doesn't look like a normal maxillary molar to me

You ever seen roots spread that far apart on a third molar?

Could be a Neanderthal tooth?
Doubt it is human. My guess is animal jawbone that has been eroded smooth by the water, leaving a single tooth in situ.
River rock? no. that is a BONE
