Dental anatomy of dogs

  • What type of teeth do dogs have?

    The permanent teeth include incisors, which are used to nip and bite; canines, which tear and shred flesh; and premolars and molars, which shear and crush.
    In short, a dog's teeth serve as weapons and as tools for cutting or tearing food.
    The canines are the upper and lower fangs for which the dog family was named..

  • Typically, an adult dog should have 42 teeth in total: that's 20 on top of their jaw and 22 on the bottom.
After examining the dog's dental system, following conclusions were drawn: the dog has 42 permanent teeth, which are distributed over the dental arches not equally, and so the upper dentition consists of 20, and the lower of 22 teeth.
