Best Answer

They are not "teeth", but rather mandibles. They help the grasshopper to tear off parts of a plant, then help it chew its food.

They are on the sides of its mouth, most are black in color, and most are inside of the grasshoppers mouth, though I have seen a few with mandibles outside of the mouth.
