Presently, no living bird has teeth.
The earliest remains of large flightless diving birds, Hesperornis spp., had primitive teeth. Other toothed sea birds also lived during the Cretaceous, including the flighted ichthyosaurs. Also appearing in the Early Cretaceous were the Enantiornithes, a little understood group of seemingly primitive birds. At the end of the period, the toothed birds disappeared with the dinosaurs. Since then, only toothless birds have been found in the record.
I beg to differ ... there is one bird species that is living today that has teeth
