Dentures.
George Washington was plagued by dental problems and ill-fitting dentures throughout his life. This pair of dentures is made of animal and human teeth as well as vegetable ivory - all fitted into a hinged lead base. They are on view in the Donald and Nancy de Laski Gallery of the Donald W. Reynolds Museum and Education Center.
