Matt_Bluntzercleaning teeth
I have a jawbone of a pig that I may leave intact or extract the tusk and keep just that.
What is the best way to clean it keeping in mind the tooth is the most inportant part?
is bleach ok or whould it harm the tooth?
would the same processes be used as described in the topic "bleaching leapord bones advise"?
Thanks for your input.

Mead Taxidermy StudioMatt,
The only difference will be that your jawbone will probably have some oil/grease in it. Soak it in white gas for a day or two, then in the 40 volume hydrogen peroxyde/water mix mentioned in the other thread.
