Detailed Solution

Human dentition is thecodont (teeth are embedded in the sockets of the jaw bone), diphyodont (two successive sets of teeth, initially the deciduous or milk teeth and consecutively the permanent teeth) and heterodont (teeth of various shapes that may serve different functions - incisors, canines, premolars and molars).

Pleurodont teeth are those which are attached to the sides of the jawbone.

Set of teeth which appear only once are monophyodont.

Homodont teeth are of same shape and size.
