Sharks continuously lose and replace their teeth throughout their lives, with some species shedding hundreds of teeth each year. They can grow new teeth as often as every couple of weeks, ensuring they maintain a full set for hunting and feeding. This tooth replacement process is crucial for their survival, as their teeth are essential for capturing and processing prey.
