Molars (Teeth) represent sophistication and class
Meyer Wolfsheim's cuff buttons are made from human molars, symbolizing his ruthless and criminal nature in F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby." The choice of human teeth for the cuff buttons is a striking detail that helps characterize Wolfsheim as a sinister and unscrupulous character.
In my opinion, Wolfshiem's cuff buttons, which were teeth, show that Wolfshiem is a pretty shifty character. Because Gatsby knows this shifty character, it puts emphasis on the rumor that Gatsby is a bootlegger.
In the movie "The Great Gatsby," Nick throws the cufflinks in the water as a symbolic gesture of his disillusionment with the wealthy and extravagant lifestyle exemplified by Jay Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan. It represents his rejection of materialism and artificiality, and his desire to distance himself from the superficial world he had been drawn into.

Wolfsheim is one of Gatsby's bootlegging partners. I thought this was important info because it reveals that Gatsby is not as ideal and "great" as he appears. He hasn't come across his wealth by acceptable means. Since he doesn't come from money, Gatsby, in his quest for the American Dream, was willing to do whatever necessary to acquire money. Thus his connection to Wolfsheim who seems to be a bit of a thug - note his cuff-links made of human molars. Wolfsheim is just one in a long list of dirty little things that Gatsby is trying to cover up as he tries to steal Daisy from her husband.
