What is the largest Megalodon tooth ever found?
Fossil Megalodon teeth are relatively common in some areas of the world, such as the coastal regions of the SE United State. Most adult Megalodon teeth fall into the 4-5 inch size range. As teeth approach 6 inches they become rare, representing far less than 1% of teeth. These 6 inch teeth obviously represented extremely large individual sharks.
Very few Megalodon teeth have ever been found exceeding 7 inches. Many people who have spent their lifetime’s finding and collecting Megalodon teeth have never had their hands on a 7+ inch tooth. Determining what is truly the largest Megalodon tooth found is problematic, because just like with fishing, people like to exaggerate. There’s a million stories about that 7 ½” or 8" tooth that someone found, but for some reason disappeared, never to be seen again.
