Manatees do not have teeth in the traditional sense. Instead, they have a series of continuously growing, flat molars that are used to grind vegetation. These molars are replaced throughout the manatee's life as they become worn down. Manatees do not need to clean their teeth as they primarily feed on vegetation, which does not leave behind food particles that can get stuck in their teeth. However, manatees may occasionally ingest small amounts of gravel or sand along with their food, which can help to keep their molars clean and free of debris. Additionally, manatees are known to rub their faces and mouths on hard surfaces, such as rocks or dock pilings, which can also help to remove any buildup on their molars.
