All mammals have two sets of teeth. The milk teeth and their adult teeth, it's one of the defining characteristics of our genera. Outside of hair, milk and our ear bones.
It's the price of having specialized teeth, all other vertibrates with teeth have an unlimited capacity to regrow their teeth. Their teeth are just variations on a cone shape though. No specialized crinders and cutters or chisels.

Dogs definitely do. and monkeys presumably so. Anything with teeth when little has to get adult teeth later, because teeth do not grow.

Sure, they've child enamel and, yes, they lose them so their grownup tooth can develop in. Mainly, they only swallow and digest their baby teeth which can come out while they are consuming or enjoying with chunk toys. That's why you by no means saw a number of baby tooth laying around before.

sure, they have toddler teeth and, sure, they lose them so their man or woman teeth can advance in. commonly, they only swallow and digest their toddler teeth which could come out at the same time as they are eating or twiddling with chew toys. it really is why you by no skill said extremely some toddler teeth laying round earlier.

Most animals loose baby teeth. Dogs and cats usualy swallow them.

I know for sure dogs do, I have found several from my puppies.
I gather the same goes for cats and other animals.

I dunno about Monkeys, but puppies do. They usually swallow them, but I am sure if you look really hard you may find one in their food or something.
