He had false teeth that were made of wood.

The myth or legend is that Washington had wooden teeth, Actually he only had IVORY teeth.

Wooden teeth would not have worked in the mouth. The saliva and acid in the mouth would have easily rotted them and they would have splintered.

As far as disabilities, he did have some emotional problems with losing his temper and fits of depression which may have been a signal of an emotional disbaility. However, if he did, he overcame any major effects of it.

Washington did not have any known physical or mental disabilities except bad teeth. He was famous as the founding father of the US, serving as the commander of the army that won the revolution and as the first president.
