* Just about every abyssal fish (except for pelican eels) has enormous needle-like teeth. Teeth like this are very bad for biting and chewing but are excellent at skewering and thus trapping a fish on the first bite. [[labelnote:*]]Now pass that BrainBleach.[[/labelnote]]
** One species, ''Neoceratias spinifer'', whom Tim Flannery nicknamed [[MeaningfulName the "Pincushion Sea Devil"]], has lost her glowing lure probably because her teeth glow in the dark.

Its mouth is always at least partway open because its mouth is of insufficient size to contain them closed.



* Moray eels [[http://www.alertdiver.com/Alien_Jaws_Enable_Elite_Predator have a second "pharyngeal jaw"]] that is essentially a real-life [[Franchise/{{Alien}} Xenomorph]] inner [[NestedMouths mouth]].

* A medical condition called "hyperdontia" results in extra teeth in humans. [[SincerityMode Please heed our warnings]] when we say that if you're tempted to run to Google images, be prepared to get very, ''very'' uncomfortable.
* [[ThreateningShark Sharks]]. Not only do they have a complete set of choppers, but they have multiple replacement sets growing right behind the first set. This is because when you eat like a shark, you go through teeth ''fast''. Their skin is actually made of millions of microscopic teeth called "dermal denticles", each one a tiny version of the ones in their mouths, complete with a tiny pulp cavity and layers of dentine and enamel. Shark skin can be used as sandpaper. Evolutionarily speaking teeth, scales, feathers, hair, and bone[[labelnote:*]]which is odd, since shark skeletons aren't made of bone, just cartilage[[/labelnote]] are all variants of the same process.
** Special mention goes to the extinct "shark" ([[https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/phenomena/2013/02/26/buzzsaw-jaw-helicoprion-was-a-freaky-ratfish/ now apparently revealed to be a ratfish]], but still closely related enough) ''Helicoprion'' which did not lose the teeth in its lower jaw, instead keeping all of them in a deadly whorl of teeth, though apparently most of said teeth were hidden in the jaw, [[BodyHorror like an internal chainsaw]]. Let's also give it up for ''C. Megalodon''. Imagine a large Great White Shark. Now triple its size. [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c5/Megalodon_jaws.jpg Or just look at this photo.]]
* Crocodilians. Their teeth are not designed for cutting or grinding but are designed for grabbing and holding. So they're shaped more like dull railroad spikes that are driven into your limbs so they can rip chunks off of you when they spin their bodies. And, like sharks (see above) and dinosaurs (see below), the teeth are designed to fall out and be replaced easily. The gharial can have up to 110 teeth.
** Ironically, despite alligators having more teeth than crocodiles (up to 80 teeth, while crocs can have only up to 66), they show fewer when they close their mouths due to the lower teeth fitting into sockets in the upper jaw.
* {{Piranha|Problem}}s. At around 24 teeth per fish they only need ten fish to beat out the Osmonds, and they school ''much'' larger than ten.
* Most kinds of bony fishes, especially the predatory ones, have teeth on their tongues, in their throat, and hanging from the roofs of their mouths, not just along the jawline.
* Several predatory dinosaurs, as well as some herbivores:
** Say hello to ''[[http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2001/01/dinostory_2001-01-29.html Masiakasaurus.]]''
** Not to mention ''Pelecanimimus'', which, in contrast to its later, toothless relatives, had ''220 teeth'', showing that ornithomimosaurs' teeth got smaller and more numerous until they disappeared altogether.
** The record for the most teeth of any dinosaur is held by the duck-billed ''Edmontosaurus'', at ''1,000'' (although not all of them were in use at a time). Dental battery, indeed! Many other species of hadrosaurs and ceratopsids also had similar tooth structures (which evolved independently).
** While ''UsefulNotes/TyrannosaurusRex'' might not've had a jaw that freaky, the tooth size more than makes up for it. Including the part firmly rooted inside a skull designed for crushing bone, which had possibly the greatest bite force of anything on the planet at that time, the Rex's teeth could be a foot long. And it had 50 of them.
** The unusual sauropod ''Nigersaurus'', which had a short, squared-off snout for chopping low-growing vegetation, which had more than five-hundred teeth, which were each replaced every fourteen days.
* Ctenochasmatid pterosaurs, flamingo-like filter-feeders which had extremely thin, closely packed teeth in their beaks resembling whale baleen. But unlike whale baleen, which are comprised of hair-like keratin, ctenochasmatids had real teeth, with dentine, enamel, and pulp.. The most well-known genus, ''Pterodaustro'', had roughly ''one-thousand'' teeth in its bill, each less than half a millimetre in width.

* Most kinds of bony fishes, especially the predatory ones, have teeth on their tongues, in their throat, and hanging from the roofs of their mouths, not just along the jawline.
* Several predatory dinosaurs, as well as some herbivores:
** Say hello
gharials up to ''[[http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2001/01/dinostory_2001-01-29.html Masiakasaurus.]]''
** Not to mention ''Pelecanimimus'', which, in contrast to its later, toothless relatives, had ''220 teeth'', showing that ornithomimosaurs' teeth got smaller and more numerous until they disappeared altogether.
** The record for the most teeth of any dinosaur is held by the duck-billed ''Edmontosaurus'', at ''1,000'' (although not all of them were in use at a time). Dental battery, indeed! Many other species of hadrosaurs and ceratopsids also had similar tooth structures (which evolved independently).
** While ''UsefulNotes/TyrannosaurusRex'' might not've had a jaw that freaky, the tooth size more than makes up for it. Including the part firmly rooted inside a skull designed for crushing bone, which had possibly the greatest bite force of anything on the planet at that time, the Rex's teeth could be a foot long. And it had 50 of them.
** The unusual sauropod ''Nigersaurus'', which had a short, squared-off snout for chopping low-growing vegetation, which had more than five-hundred teeth, which were each replaced every fourteen days.
* Ctenochasmatid pterosaurs, flamingo-like filter-feeders which had extremely thin, closely packed teeth in their beaks resembling whale baleen. But unlike whale baleen, which are comprised of hair-like keratin, ctenochasmatids had real teeth, with dentine, enamel, and pulp.. The most well-known genus, ''Pterodaustro'', had roughly ''one-thousand'' teeth in its bill, each less than half a millimetre in width.
110.



* While it's not the same structurally, the extinct lobopod ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opabinia Opabinia regalis]]'' has a mouth under its chin - and a tubular proboscis thing tipped with claws that extends from the front of its head and looks an awful lot like a pair of jaws on a trunk.
* Goblin sharks also have a Xenomorph jaw that extends out to grab hold of prey. They seem UglyCute and harmless, with their huge duck-billed nose, until -- ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eh_HUIJkRzU oh the horror!]]'' Mostly found in the waters of Japan, and although they aren't very common in the modern-day, it's believed they were once more numerous during the Age of Dinosaurs.
* Tapeworms use their "[[http://curezone.com/ig/i.asp?i=1359 hooks]]" to grasp the intestines of potential hosts.
* Opossums have more teeth than any other land mammal; 50 teeth in something that size [[http://www.aaanimalcontrol.com/gallery/opossum021.jpg is really saying something]].
* Snails, who have several ''thousand'' [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radula pairs of teeth]]. Terrifying, no?
* Squid, octopi, and cuttlefish run a pretty close second, though. Their tongues (or radula) are tooth-lined rasps that help them lick the flesh from their prey. In the case of squid, their suction cups are also tooth studded, to the point of being hook- or claw-like in some larger species.
* For some of the biggest non-tusk teeth in the world, see [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Livyatan_melvillei Livyatan melvillei]] -- a whale with a mouthful of [[http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2010/6/30/1277901299026/Artists-impression-of-gia-002.jpg very big teeth]]

** Geese, puffins, mergansers, and some toucans all have tooth-like serrations on the rims of their beaks.
* The technically toothless [[https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/leatherback-sea-turtle-mouth/ leatherback sea turtle]] '''has long, sharp prongs lining most of its esophagus''', the better to prevent its often still-living food from escaping after swallowing them.
* Cats in general: their tongues are covered in tooth-like projections called papillae. The better to clean one's fur and lick those stubborn pieces of meat off of the bone, yes? For a human, being licked by one can range from being ticklish (think getting exfoliated during a pedicure) to having your skin scraped by sandpaper. And yes, blood will be drawn if they are allowed to do this long enough.
* At the risk of sounding morbid, the skulls of deceased children kind of look like this. In addition to the baby teeth on the surface, the adult teeth are plainly visible below the gum line, so it looks like there are dozens of extra teeth ''inside the jaw and roof''. It turns out that our adult teeth are there the entire time, patiently waiting for our mouths to grow large enough to accommodate them. You can also see this in X-ray images of children's heads.
* While the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gizzard gizzard]] possessed by several animal groups do not count as an example, the equivalent organ in some crustaceans, typically known as a "gastric mill", is often lined with chitinous or calcareous ridges, plates, and denticles (tooth-like processes). Yes, that's right: '''Their stomachs have teeth.'''
* [[https://www.cnn.com/2019/08/01/asia/india-boy-teeth-intl-hnk-scli/index.html A 7-year-old boy in India underwent surgery after he complained about having jaw pain]]. The reason? He had '''526''' teeth growing in a sac. It's a rare condition called compound composite odontoma.
