Shark jaws

I just wanted to know if it could be possible to remove shark teeth from their jaws once you have dried their jaws. If anyone knows how to do this I will be really greatfull if they could help me.

If you want to remove all the teeth you can boil or soak in water for several days This will soften the cartilage and allow you to remove the teeth.

You can remove one or two teeth by cutting through the cartilage around the "root" of the tooth and freeing it. I have done this to great white, tiger and mako jaw sets to get single teeth for use as jewelry. Want em all? Do as tony says. Add a little vinegar to the water, makes it smell better.
