Many herbivorous dinosaurs had teeth that curved backward to help them effectively browse and strip vegetation. Notable examples include the hadrosaurs (duck-billed dinosaurs) and some sauropods, like Brachiosaurus. The backward curvature allowed these dinosaurs to grip and process plant material more efficiently. This adaptation was crucial for their feeding strategies in herbivorous diets.
