teeth
Central Incisors = Cutting food. Premolars = Grinding food. (Though Molars do most of the grinding) Molars = Grinding and tearing food. Canines = Tearing Food.
Your teeth. You have incisors for cutting. Canines for grabbing And molars for grinding your food.
Premolars and molars are used for mashing and grinding food.. Canines are for tearing meat and incisors are used for cutting chunks of food off.
Your molars are responsible for grinding food.
the front teeth sre for ripping the food, the back teeth are for grinding the food
mechanical processing
The incisors, which are at the front of the mouth, have "chisel" type edges for cutting the food. The canines, which are pointed rather than chisel-like, lie next to the incisors, but further towards the "molars" at the back. Canine teeth are used for tearing the food (Think of the tiger ripping food from its prey.) Just to complete this, the "molars" are the larger, flatter teeth right at the back, and these are for "grinding" food, just as the word "molar" suggests grinding because the word "molar" comes from a language where its meaning is to do with mills.
Mechanical digestion starts when food is chewed physically by the teeth (grinding and tearing the food), and the remaining steps of digestion continue from then on.
Incisors- Used for biting Canines- Used for ripping and tearing food apart Premolars- Used for chewing and grinding Molars- also used for chewing and grinding
The sharp ones are canine teeth And the back ones are molers
Incisor teeth are designed for the job of tearing off pieces of food. (As opposed to grinding down food once it's been torn off and is in your mouth).
