What is Premolar?
[[File:Gray997.png|thumb|Permanent teeth of right half of lower dental arch, seen from above.]] The '''premolar''' [[teeth]] of [[mammal]]s are the teeth between the [[Canine tooth|canines]] and the [[molar]]s. There are at most a total of eight of them. The number is reduced in the [[dental formula]] of many species. As the name suggests, they are like smaller molars, and their function is to crush and grind food. {{biology-stub}} [[Category:Teeth]]
