Certain canines

Answer:

EYETEETH

Hint:

Think of the sharp teeth found in a dog’s mouth, specifically the pair located just below the eyes.

Explanation:

Certain canines" is a playful hint pointing to "EYETEETH," where "canines" refers to the sharp teeth in your mouth—not dogs. The word "certain" suggests you’re looking for a specific type of canine tooth, and "eye teeth" is another name for the pointed teeth next to your front incisors. It’s a clever twist using dental terminology instead of the more obvious animal meaning.
