Rabbits have a rather unusual dental formula.

The top jaw has four incisors, with two large ones in the center, and two smaller ones behind them (the "peg teeth"). The lower jaw has only two incisors.

The upper jaw has three premolars and three molars on each side, and the lower has two premolars and three molars on each side. There are no canine teeth. So count 'em up and you have a grand total of 28 teeth!

The permanent (adult) teeth grow continuously as they are worn down by chewing, but they are not constantly shed.

Rabbits also have baby teeth when in the womb but lose them a week before birth.

Rabbit teeth never stop growing, sort of like our fingernails. If a rabbit doesn't chew enough their teeth will not grind down and the teeth will grow longer than needed...sometimes very long ei. three inches. Rabbit's teeth have no nerve endings so if carefully done one could snip the teeth with clippers (you should probably get a vet to do this)
