Many frogs do not have teeth. Instead, they have a specialized jaw structure that allows them to grip and swallow prey whole. However, some species of frogs do have small teeth-like structures called maxillary teeth, which are used to hold onto prey.

Yes, some frogs do have teeth, but their teeth are not like the teeth of mammals. Unlike humans or other mammals that have teeth for chewing and grinding food, the teeth in frogs are mainly used for holding prey rather than chewing it.

To get a more detailed answer, you can search for reliable sources that provide information about the anatomy of frogs. Online sources such as reputable wildlife websites, scientific articles, or biology textbooks can give you more in-depth information about the types and functions of teeth in different frog species. Additionally, you can also consult with herpetologists or experts in the field of amphibians to get precise and accurate information.
