Without teeth or lacking teeth; a biological or anatomical condition of having no dentition.
From Latin prefix 'e-' (without) combined with 'dentalis' (relating to teeth, from 'dens'), creating a term used in medical and biological descriptions since the 18th century.
Edental organisms are surprisingly common—sea urchins, baleen whales, and birds are all edental, meaning 'no teeth' takes many evolutionary forms depending on how an animal actually eats!
