How many teeth do sharks have?

First, you need to specify which species.





Second, you need to realize that those sharks with teeth have rows upon rows of teeth. This is designed to allow the shark to maintain the same number of primary teeth when a precursor tooth is lost during an attack and needs to be replaced by a subsequent one. If you look at a shark%26#039;s jaw, you will see a few rows of teeth present.





The answer ranges from 0 - a few dozen teeth

How many teeth do sharks have?
alot!!!they have rows of teeth in the back of their mouth that grow in when the other teeth fall out!! there are about 15 or more rows, actually alolt more than that!!
Reply:This will depend on the species, for example, a Whale Shark has no teeth as they feed on plankton, compared to something like a Mega-mouth Shark which has to many to count. May species have rows of teeth behind the front row waiting to take their place if they should get knocked out.
Reply:1) Shark teeth tend to fall out and are replaced by new ones.


So you cannot really count them.





2) Sharks mostly have several rows of teeth (from 1 to about 15)


You have to specify your shark before we can answer your question.
Reply:endless when they loose a tooth another one grows back in its place
