Elephants use their mouths, teeth, and tongues to eat food and drink water. They use their trunks to breathe. It's the elephant equivalent of the human nose.
Adult elephants may eat an estmated 170-200 kilograms/77-91 pounds of food. In order to meet these requirements, they may draw on other body parts for help. For example, elephants are able to use their trunks to catch prey.
An elephant's water requirements may range from 80-200 liters/72-180 quarts per day. They can't meet their water needs through their mouths. What they do instead is take water in temporarily, for spraying into their mouths for drink or onto their bodies for bathing.
