No not all snakes have fangs. Only snakes with Venom have the fangs, they use these to inject the venom. Snakes which kill their prey by constriction (squeezing) do not have fangs, they have rows of tiny teeth to grip there food as they swallow there prey.

Yes. All snakes have teeth, or Fangs. Some use them to inject Venom, either Neurotoxic or Haematoxic, while others,which use constriction have teeth to help with digestion & drawing the prey into the snakes body. Most snakes are front fanged, but the Boomslang, for example, is a back fanged snake.

mostly all of them do but a boa constructor does not

have them.

EDIT: ALL snakes have teeth - their size depends on the species of snake as to whether they're big (as in the pythons and boas) or tiny (like those of the corn snake etc)

No. snakes have no molars at all. Molars are milling or crushing teeth. Snakes eat by swallowing their prey that they pull into their throats with sharp-pointed, hooked teeth.
