How many teeth do a monkeys have?

Answer 1

There are over 100 species of monkeys.

The common chimpanzee has 32.
(8 teeth X 4 quadrants)

Each quadrant of their mouth have:
2 incisors - 1 canine - 2 premolars - 3 molars

All Old World monkeys, apes, and humans share this 2.1.2.3 dental formula.

New World Monkeys have an extra premolar, giving them a 2.1.3.3 formula. Marmosets and tamarins, the smallest of these monkeys do not have a third molar, giving them a 2.1.3.2 dental formula.

Answer 2

It depends on the primate! The primitive condition for primates, observed in prosimiians and New World monkeys, is a dental formula of 2-1-3-3 (incisors, canines, premolars and molars found in one quadrant of a mouth). They have 36 teeth. Old World monkeys and apes have 32 teeth (under normal conditions--that is, without wisdom teeth being removed and such) because their dental formula is 2-1-2-3.
