Elephants
have the largest teeth in the world, known as tusks. They are modified incisors
and are deeply embedded in the animals’ skull.
The heaviest
pair of tusks belonged to an African Elephant Loxodonta Africana. They were different
size but together they weighed 211kgs!
The longest
tusk ever found belonged to the extinct the Straight-tusked Elephant. This
animals tusks were averagely 5m long!
The heaviest
tusks ever known weighed 226kg and belonged to the Colombian Mammoth.
Though
people don’t have such impressive teeth, it’s worth checking them regularly at
the dentist in Poland. Remember to take good care and remember that dentaltreatment in Poland is very professional and at a high level!
