  1. eye tooth

    An eye tooth, also known as a canine tooth, is one of the pointed teeth in the front of the mouth, next to the incisors. These teeth get their name from their long, pointed shape, similar to a dog's canine teeth. In humans, there are four canine teeth, two at the top and two at the bottom. They are primarily used for gripping and tearing food. Their position in the mouth is right under the eyes, hence the term "eye tooth."
