I am sorry to tell that the tooth was pulled, and is no longer here. We went 9/7/2020.

A giant tooth carved from a tree stump sits outside a dentist's office. The molar is 10 feet tall and was sculpted in 2015 by chainsaw artist Jesse Green. The stump is what is left of a European beech that was planted in 1726 on the day that Stoughton was incorporated and fell many years later, during a hurricane, onto the dentist's car.
