Michael Zuk already owns a rotten tooth out of the mouth of Beatles icon John Lennon.
The Elvis crown came to him through an auction in the United Kingdom and had previously belonged to Memphis dentist Henry Weiss.
Elvis apparently had a gap in his smile that he covered with a crown, and Weiss made a number of them because the king would often chip them on the microphone.
Zuk says he doesn't know yet whether Presley wore the crown he bought, but he's hopeful. Pictures of it show what looks like a crack across the front.

Choosing the dentist for you and your family is as important as finding the right health care provider. This becomes even more important when you realize that more people have anxiety over dental visits and checkups than any other routine medical procedures.
