Check the portrait on one dollar bill again. Some of you may know the dental problems which George Washington, the first president of the USA suffered. He lost his first tooth at the age of 22 and at the time of his presidency, he had only one native tooth left. He had several sets of false teeth made, which include gold, ivory, lead, human and animal teeth (horse and donkey teeth were common components).
The links below are the photographs of the dentures, exhibited in National Museum of Dentistry, USA
