Hey all, I've got a couple of black bear canine teeth that I want to make into jewelry. I did take a hacksaw and carefully cut the teeth down to the size I wanted, but my wife insists that there must be something that I can put on the teeth to prevent them from drying out and splitting.

I say that the teeth are 10+ years old and if they were going to split, they'd have already done it. But, in the interest of familial harmony, I thought I'd ask here to see if there's anything that I can do before continuing on with my project...

Anyone?

Bueller?

Bueller??

i have a black bear skull in my office that is 20 years old. i never treated any part of it with anything and the teeth are still perfect....
