Four Juvenile T-Rex Teeth, These four complete juvenile T-Rex tooth 2 inches, 1.5 inches, 1.2 inches and .8 inch long and have excellent brown enamel with some minor enamel cracking, full tips except for some natural wear on two of the teeth and even some serrations. All T-Rex teeth are shed teeth except the very few that are found with the dozen or so partial skeletons that have been found. These teeth were found in an ancient river or lake bed on a private ranch in the 65-67 million year old Hell Creek Formation of Powder River County, Montana. All four of these teeth have squared off bases at the bottom of the teeth which is definitive for T-Rex teeth. There is still some debate as to whether the smaller more slender teeth of the Juvenile T-Rex belong to T-Rex or are adult teeth of the smaller species Nano tyrannus. This is a difficult question to answer because they are found in the same age rock formation.
