Where are the worms teeth and mouth?

0

The front, or “anterior” end of the worm houses its mouth. Worms actually do not have teeth because they do not eat the food, but rather the bacteria that break down the food. The worms use their “prostomium” (a sensitive pad of muscle and skin that protrudes out over their mouth similar to an “over-bite”) to scoop the bacteria into their mouth.
