Teeth is a 65-cell quadratic growth pattern that was found by Nick Gotts in March 2000.^[1] This (and a related 65-cell pattern that Gotts found at about the same time) beat the record previously held by mosquito 5 for smallest population pattern known to have superlinear growth. It has since been superseded by several patterns including catacryst, metacatacryst, and 26-cell quadratic growth.

Generation 50000 of teeth
