The greatest number of teeth in any known placental land mammal [specify] was 48, with a formula of 3.1.5.3 3.1.5.3. [9] However, no living placental mammal has this number. In extant placental mammals, the maximum dental formula is 3.1.4.3 3.1.4.3 for pigs. Mammalian tooth counts are usually identical in the upper and lower jaws, but not always.
By age five, all permanent teeth have usually erupted. The horse is then said to have a "full" mouth. After the age of five, age can only be conjectured by study of the wear patterns on the incisors, shape, the angle at which the incisors meet, and other factors. The wear of teeth may also be affected by diet, natural abnormalities, and ...

Because the fetal pigs were still in the mother's uterus, teeth will still form which supports reasons for hollow unerupted teeth that may be seen. Similar to human dental anatomy, the overall dental anatomy of the pig consists of incisors, canines, pre-molars, and molars. Piglets can have 28 teeth total and adult pigs can have 44 teeth total.
