Do toads and frogs have teeth

Toads have no teeth, frogs have teeth.
Frogs have teeth, but their teeth are not used to chew food like we do, but to prevent food from slipping or running away from its mouth.
Frogs have a large mouth with a row of tiny teeth in the middle of the upper jaw (è).
Frogs are carnivores. They use their teeth to swallow food whole.
Frogs on land grab food by quickly rolling the food into the mouth through the tongue with mucus sticking out suddenly, and the eyes enter the mouth from the top of the head, pushing the food, so that the frog swallows the food. If the captured food is too large or trying to escape, they will use their hands to stuff the prey into its mouth. Aquatic frogs capture food by their fingertips and with their front limbs and deliver it to their mouths.
