In the city of Valdosta in the state of Georgia, USA, about 1000 teeth were found from the wall of the building preparing for remodeling. Although this place is a building that was originally used as a dental hospital, mysteries are deepening as a lot of teeth are found from the wall also in other places as well.

This is a photo of teeth actually found. It was said that teeth had already been disposed of at the time of article creation.



The reason why the tooth-filled wall was made is unknown. According to Harry Evans, a researcher belonging to the Historical Society, "Converse Building" where a tooth was found was built in 1900, when Clarence Whittington, a dentist, was in residence at the time. Lester G. Youmans doctor, who came to Valdosta in 1911, also entered Converse Building and said that he used the building until at least 1930.

When the news becomes a topic, Ellen Hill, who is responsible for the project of revitalization of Valdosta, begins the investigation. There was also a record that contained the drug store at the place where Converse Building was in, and it is presumed that Youmans doctor was holding the dental hospital on the drugstore.

There are also reports that teeth have been found in the walls of the buildings in two other cities of Georgia, Greensboro and Carrollton. Like the case of Valdosta, this building was also used by a dentist. "It is unknown whether dentists of the time were to generalize to fill teeth on the walls, but it is strange that the same happened in the other two cities," Hill says.
