Français : Amulette, romaine, de dentition ; quand les dents de lait percent les gencives, le processus est douloureux pour certains bébés. Cette amulette de dentition était sensée les aider à traverser cette période difficile. Pline, au premier siècle apr. J.-C., recommandait de placer une dent de loup ou de cheval sur le corps de l'enfant pour aider à la dentition, mais sans laisser la dent toucher le sol. Cette amulette est faite d'une dent sertie dans un manche en bronze
Deutsch: Amulett, römisch, Zahnen; Wenn Milchzähne das Zahnfleisch durchbrechen, ist der Vorgang für manche Babys schmerzhaft.

Dieses Amulett besteht aus einem in einen Bronzegriff eingefassten Zahn.
