	Chinaroad Lowchens of Australia - all about retained deciduous canine teeth
		Lance canines, reverse scissor bite of the incisors, lower canines ulcerating the roof of the mouth.
		The lower canine must continue to erupt and therefore the crown of this tooth is often found on the inside of the upper canine in the roof of the mouth, when the jaws are shut.
		Canines, the sharp "fanglike" teeth, total four; two on top (one to each side of the set of incisors) and two on the bottom.

		It is a common fallacy to describe canine teeth as being the hallmark of a carnivorous diet - the teeth associated with carnivory are the carnassial teeth.
		The Canine Teeth are four in number, two in the upper, and two in the lower arch, one being placed laterally to each lateral incisor.
		The lower canine teeth (popularly called stomach teeth) are placed nearer the middle line than the upper, so that their summits correspond to the intervals between the upper canines and the lateral incisors.

		Incisors are the front teeth of the horse, then there is a space we call the bars where the bit rests, and then behind the angle of the mouth and towards the back of the mouth back there is a row of premolars and/or molars or cheek teeth.
		Blind wolf teeth can also cause soreness in the gums and cause problems as they are often dislocated a little further into the space between the incisors and the cheek teeth where we put the bit.
		The canine teeth are located in the space beween the incisor row and the molar row (this area is called "the bar"), and the canines in the lower jaw are located a little further towards the incisors than they are in the upper jaw.

	Dog Owner's Guide: Canine Teeth
		Puppy teeth begin to shed and be replaced by permanent adult teeth at about four months of age.
		The teething period can be frustrating; the puppy clamps his mouth on everything he can reach, from body parts to Johnny's $80 sneakers, in an attempt to relieve the discomfort.
		Since puppy teeth serve as a primary tool for examining their environment, for greeting pack members, and for testing the pack hierarchy, and since puppies also grab things to relieve the discomfort of teething, some early lessons in bite inhibition are necessary.

		Normally, the adult/permanent canine teeth in the upper jaw (maxilla) appear in the mouth (erupt) between the ages of 11 and 13 years.
		Canines can fail to grow completely on one or both sides; this can either leave a gap between the incisors and premolars or the deciduous canine tooth will be retained, which in time might look too narrow or short.

	WSAVA 2001 - Dental Composites for Base Narrow Canine Correction
		Base narrow lower canines are argued to be a developmental defect or the result of retained deciduous canine teeth.
		Retained primary canines, especially base narrow primary canines should be removed but their removal will not result in a correction of the base narrow permanent canine into a proper occlusion.
		Select cases, where the base narrow canines are locked directly medial to the upper canine teeth or are in a very difficult position to move into alignment without extensive orthodontics or extraction of restrictive dentition, can be treated with calibrated coronal amputation and vital pulpotomy.

		Teeth are very important to an animal as they are used for eating, grooming and defense.
		Mammals have teeth of different sizes and shapes, a condition known as heterodonty, allowing different teeth to be specialized for different tasks.
		Hypsodont teeth are usually described as having a body, much of which is below the gum line, and root, which is embedded in the alveolus of the jaw bone.

		Affected teeth are prone to plaque and tartar accumulation and subsequent bacterial penetration and formation of caries.

		However, jaws that are so short it is impossible for all the teeth to assume normal positions and undershot bites that prevent proper occlusion of the canines and incisors are neither efficient nor functional, despite volumes of breed lore justifying those abnormalities in breeds where they are considered desirable.
		Crooked teeth may be due to crowding in a too-small or too-narrow jaw or the result of damage to the mouth, though the former is more likely..

		All of these cases were assessed in terms of the height and angulation of these teeth and also their position in relation to the arch and the space available was recorded.
		This data was used to elucidate the criteria being used to choose between alignment or extraction of the canine tooth.
		It has clearly been shown that interceptive removal of deciduous canines between the ages of 10 and 12 years can cause spontaneous resolution of the ectopic position and obviate the need for active treatment to correct the ectopic position of the permanent canines.

		Canine protected Occlusion is an important concept, especially for people who have excessive wear on their teeth, erosion of their roots, gum recession, and suffer from TMJ (temporomandibular dysfunction).

		With the gorilla palate, one sees cheek teeth that are nearly parallel, and the overall shape of the teeth is like an upside-down "U." The large canine teeth are separated from the incisor teeth by a gap, or diastema.
		The function of the diastema is to allow space for the lower canine teeth when the gorilla closes its mouth.
		The cheek teeth of AL 200-1 are sub-parallel, and between the incisors and the canine teeth one notices a diastema.
