Best Answer

Altogether, lions have 30 teeth. Among them are:

  • Four canine (fang tooth for biting) teeth are used to hold and puncture.
  • Four carnassial (blade-like tooth for shearing flesh) teeth to cut through tough skin and meat.

The rest of the teeth are conical, and designed for cutting and tearing.

Their teeth are very sharp.
