I have been cleaning a number of animal skulls and I came upon a wolf skull that had been badly damaged. The teeth we good so I kept the four canines. After cleaning them and removing the nerves, I don't know what to fill them with. Any suggestions someone ? I would like to use them to make some kind of a neckless.

The museums use a clear expoxy that strengthens the outside. Can't remember the brand

Go to the dollar store and get some of that 5 minute epoxy that is in a double tube. One is the resin the other is the hardener. I do this with beaver teeth, they are hollow inside as well.

The real key is to completely seal the tooth from the air and oxidization .. just need to listen to parental sighs when opening long stored boxes with baby teeth in them only to find powdered grit in the box.
