why animal teeth are never toothless?

I'm starting to be afraid to eat foods that are a bit hard, some of my teeth might be a bit brittle. I wonder why animal teeth can always bite through incredibly hard bones even though they never brush their teeth.

Easy! Wild animals do not lose their teeth and do not need not worry about dental care because their lifespans are a lot shorter than humans.

@May2k8 Only elephants live long, most wild animals (included stray cats and dogs) do not live long.

@LadyDuck Oh I see! My mother once said that elephants eat soil, then the elephant gets angry and sprays it into the air.

I guess this is the way God has designed them. Yes, me too, the same, I must be careful. I am sorry you too.

Chemicals can also cause our teeth to become damaged.

They really do have strong teeth don’t they. I wish mine were stronger too mine are pretty brittle after so many years of bruxism.

Yes, they have that compared to us, even the young ones have no more teeth.

I think they get plenty of friction against their teeth with eating things in the wild,maybe even chewing on branches and such. A certain amount of that is good for teeth.

That is just the way nature made animals.

What's more interesting is that animal bodies also have benefits.
