Look at your own teeth.
Animals that eat both plants and meat will have both cutting teeth (like your front teeth) and tearing teeth (pointed teeth, like your canines. They will also have some grinding teeth in back, to grind up plant matter and start the digestion of starches. Meat doesn't need to be ground, as the digestion doesn't start until it reaches the stomach.
