That is fucking creepy as fuck.

Yeah seriously. What the fuck. They're like little bone-zits. Freaks me the fuck out.

We saw this on my son's facial x-ray years ago, after he got hit by a swing. It was interesting in a "nature's kind of amazing" way. The doc said he could tell his adult teeth would come in straight and properly, which they did.

Seeing it like this is a little creepy though. And a bit sad, poor kid never had a chance to use those adult teeth.

In my tired state I read that to mean that something bad happened to your son. It made me sad. Very sad.

Oh. Heh. On re-reading it, I think I see what you mean. I could've been a little more clear I guess.

Nothing too bad happened to my son, but he did get hit by a swing, just above the eye. It cut his eyebrow and bled copiously, the way these injuries do. But it was the way it swelled which worried me, so we took him to get checked out. There was a tiny hairline fracture in the orbital bone, which healed with no need for treatment or any further problems.

He's a full grown adult now, and doing fine. He's using his strong, straight adult teeth unlike the unfortunate owner of that skull in the photo.

Yay! I feel slightly less awful about life.

I understand the need for medical study, but I wonder if the child wanted to be displayed like that? At the monent I would have no problem if it were me, but there are times when I would feel violated from the idea of thousands of people casually looking at at picture of my skull, thinking "that's neat", and moving on.

The doctor showed us my daughter's baby teeth on the ultrasound before she was even born. And could tell that they would come in straight (which they did).

wishes I was 10 so I could play with all my wiggly baby teeth again

I think it'd be nice if I could replace some of my teeth again.

Losing teeth was horrible. It hurt and the taste of bloody chunky toothfood is disgusting. I puked every other time I lost a tooth.

I hate teeth.

[–]RielDealJr 0 points1 point ago

I agree. And then there are wisdom teeth...

I was in bed for days.

Sarcasm WAAT? The thing that I wonder is, they they honestly are like "Oh cool! Look what I found!" or are find link on reddit and post thinking "Oh cool I can get karma from that!" Just kinda annoying. Not like reddit has a SEARCH function where ya type in "skull" and see the same dam pic five times. >:-|

[–]samsf90 1 point2 points ago

Question: are the teeth exposed artificially for demonstration? or does the skull actually look that fucked up?

[–]Borkt 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It looks like they exposed it. You dont usually have a gaping hole where your chin should be.

[–]Justin007isback 1 point2 points ago

I don't know if I should say that looks cool. I mean it did come from a dead child.

[–]OrigamiArmy 1 point2 points ago

Never going to look at a child the same way again, FREAKS!

That's awesome. Makes me want to grow some more teeth so I can try to feel the lumpy shapes in my jaw bones.

I friend of mine still has most of her baby teeth. She's 25. Her front teeth are adult ones but the molars are all baby... there just wasn't any big teeth under them, forcing them out so they just stayed put.

Looks like the same post I saw a week ago.

Is this from the National Museum of Health and Science on the Walter Reed Army base? Because I think it is.
