The four front teeth are called incisors. As their name suggests, they are used for cutting and biting into food, and their shape resembles a spade with a straight lower edge. The first pointed tooth after the incisors is the canine, located symmetrically on either side of the incisors. After it come the premolars and molars. The canine has a pronounced point, and its function is to tear food. Its tip also meets the opposing teeth in a very specific way and takes part in the sideways movements of the jaw. Without the point of the canine, the smile looks unattractive and resembles ‘false teeth’. Many patients don’t like how pointed their canines are, but don’t realise that these teeth contribute to the harmony of the smile and play an important role in chewing.
