Tooth duller is a sardonic military slang term for hardtack — the notoriously hard, dense biscuits issued to soldiers and sailors as a field ration. The nickname captures the lived experience of biting into hardtack unprepared: it could chip or blunt teeth if not soaked in liquid first. Typically used in historical military contexts and is now more of a piece of colourful period slang than active usage.
