A #fossil #dinosaur tooth of a #Dromaeosaurus albertensis from the Judith River fm. in Hill co., Montana, USA.

The most notable trait here is the serration-less and prominent mesial twist of the carinae. Chisel-like denticles also distinguish it from cf. #Saurornitholestes.

Teeth of contemporary #tyrannosaurids like #Daspletosarus and #Gorgosaurus are commonly mistaken for them due to their mesial twist. But it's not too difficult to tell apart once you know what to look for.
