==Breed Differences==

==Breed Differences==

Eruption times differ between breeds so it is difficult to age dogs by their teeth. '''Brachiocephalic''' dogs do not possess all of the cheek teeth. They have '''fused [[Root - Anatomy & Physiology|roots]]''' and '''carnasial teeth''' (upper P4 and lower M1).
