How Many Teeth Do Dogs Have?
Have you ever wondered how many teeth do dogs have? The answer to that question is that adult dogs
have an average of 42 permanent teeth. This number makes the average number of 32 human teeth
seem measly.
Of course, we're not counting wisdom teeth as those are considered a bonus. When it comes to puppies,
they have 28 baby teeth on average, while human babies only have 20 teeth.
Just like human babies, puppies also have milk teeth that are smaller in size and not as sharp as their
permanent teeth. However, while the time period of milk teeth is longer for human babies, puppies
lose their milk teeth in four months and that's when their permanent teeth start to appear. These
details are mostly taken from google.com and some other sources.
While the teeth of puppies are small and not as sharp as the teeth of their adult counter parts, they are
still sharp enough to give human beings a TEASER. By the time your puppy is six months old, its teeth
count goes up to 42. These adult teeth are entrenched in his jaws by STRONG roots and last till the end.
You can estimate how strong these teeth are by considering the fact that dogs love to chew on a bone,
which is something humans don't even consider doing.
Types of Dog Teeth
When it comes to types of teeth, a dog has four types and each of these types has a specific purpose.
Incisors: are the smaller teeth located in the front portion, and they are commonly used for picking up
items in the mouth or for chewing off residual meat on a bone. Every dog has twelve incisors, equally
divided in the upper and lower jaws.
Canines: are the two teeth that you can clearly see when a dog is angry. These are the two protruding,
fang-like teeth. They are the first line of attack when a dog attacks or bites someone. Every dog has a
total of four canines. They are normally employed for biting or for holding a bone or toy.
Premolars: are the teeth that are used for chewing and tearing flesh and bone. Every dog has eight
molars in each jaw with four on each side.
Molars: are usually used for carrying out the heavy duty work such as breaking a bone or chewing hard
food. They are located behind the premolars, and there is a total of ten molars in a dog's mouth.
