The tusks of an elephant are teeth that are made from a substance called ivory. Ivory is a similar substance to bone, but it is more dense, because it does not have a supply of blood. Elephant ivory is made up of minerals and collagen. It does not have a layer of enamel like human teeth, but it has a layer of protection called cementum.
