The fragmentary right maxilla preserves the three alveoli in full and the fourth only partially. The authors were able to ascertain that "Dryptosaurus" had ziphodont dentition. The shape of the alveolus situated on the anterior portion of the fragment suggests that it housed a tooth that was smaller and more circular than the others; an incisiform tooth which is common in tyrannosauroids. The disarticulated teeth recovered are transversely narrow, serrated (17–18 denticles/cm) and recurved. The femur is only 3% longer than the tibia. The longest manual ungual phalanx recovered measured in length. The morphology of the proximal portion of metatarsal IV suggests that "Dryptosaurus" had an arctometatarsalian foot, an advanced feature shared by derived tyrannosauroids such as "Albertosaurus" and "Tyrannosaurus", in which the third metatarsal is "pinched" between the second and fourth metatarsals.
