There’s no dispute of him having healthy teeth extracted from slaves and having slaves, only on the detail of whether the dentures made from them were used in his own mouth or for someone else. It is also fact that his dentures included human teeth, but maybe not the specific 9 teeth we know he had taken from slaves
> Records at Mount Vernon show that Washington bought teeth from slaves
is what I said, had slaves and took their teeth, except that maybe he didn’t put the extracted teeth into his own mouth and used the slave teeth for some other purpose or a different person’s dentures, you’re correct on that and I thank you for sharing that detail.
