This is an uncommon tooth from the front of the jaws of a Deltadromeus agilis dinosaur.  Unlike teeth from the lateral jaw position where the body is more laterally compressed, the anterior teeth are rounder in cross section thereby making them stronger to withstand the snatching and initial striking bites of the prey by the dinosaur.   Preservation on this tooth is good with minor feeding wear but amazingly, no breakage!  Enamel has surface pitting but with nice color and grain.  Visible serrations can be seen on the trailing edge.  NO REPAIR AND NO RESTORATION.
