A dog's teeth are a masterpiece of simple engineering designed to tear, shred and grind all manner of foods. Life just wouldn't be the same for your pet without them, so understanding your pet's needs and caring for his teeth is crucial to his lifelong health and happiness. Puppy Teeth and Adult Teeth
Dogs have two different sets of teeth, just like people do. Each set is designed to serve their needs at different ages. In fact, you can even use your dog's teeth as a way of telling their approximate age. Puppy's First Teeth
The first set of puppy teeth are called deciduous teeth, but they are often referred to as milk teeth because they erupt through the gums while pups are still nursing. These teeth are quite tiny and sharp, and they have a very small root that makes them easier to shed around four months of age when the permanent adult teeth begin to replace them. The first set of 28 milk teeth does not contain molars because pups do not need them at this point.
