GENERAL INFORMATION:
The teeth of Torvosaurus are a big rarity, which makes of them the "Holy Grail" of the fossils of Theropods of the Upper Jurassic of Portugal.

The fracture is the time the tooth suffered the process of fossilization. For this reason, I consider the tooth technically perfect...
The preparation: It was terribly scary to prepare this tooth, without destroying anything of the tooth, in particular the saw... I consider this to be my best preparation work, a fossil...
