Molars on top and bottom of the jaws are flat for chewing tough plant material. Cattle do not have canines, and nor do they have incisors on the top of their jaw. The bottom incisors are flat and jut outwards. Calves are in fact often born with some of their incisors emerged, and their baby teeth fall out and are replaced with adult, permanent teeth when they reach 2 years of age.

Herbivorous teeth: flat, angled incisors and flat molars to chew grass. Cows only have a lower set of incisors, and have no teeth on the upper part of their jaw except for the molars in the back to grind forage. All ungulates (including cows) lack upper incisors and "canine" teeth.

They are flat molars, similar to that of a human's. Cows have molars both on the top and bottom jaws. Do not confuse incisors with molars, because it's the incisors (the front teeth) that cows and other ruminants lack that make people say they have "no upper teeth."
