Your back theeth
Your teeth. You have incisors for cutting. Canines for grabbing And molars for grinding your food.
Your molars are responsible for grinding food.
Incisor teeth are designed for the job of tearing off pieces of food. (As opposed to grinding down food once it's been torn off and is in your mouth).
Premolars and molars are used for mashing and grinding food.. Canines are for tearing meat and incisors are used for cutting chunks of food off.
The teeth that aid in grinding food into smaller pieces are primarily the molars and premolars. Molars have broad, flat surfaces designed to crush and grind food, while premolars assist in this process with their flat surfaces and sharper edges. Together, these teeth play a crucial role in the mechanical digestion of food before it is swallowed.

Many would say that a platypus's mouth is like a beak of a duck. It is rather different, with its bill being broader and flatter than a duck's beak. Inside the platypus's mouth are grinding plates, instead of teeth, with which the platypus grinds its food.
