What do you look for to distinguish feeding wear?

I usually call the smooth rounded tip, feading wear. This one has all the serrations on the tip worn off,but no breakage.

Yeah, it look like it has feeding "wear"/damage as you say. Nice tooth. I don't know about everyone else but I get a little bummed when I find a tooth with bit of feeding damage.

I guess My list goes like this:

Perfect serrations, perfect root, perfect enamel, perfect tip :D:drool:

Perfect serrations, perfect root, cracked enamel, perfect tip :)^_^

Perfect serrations, perfect root, cracked enamel, feeding damage :o:mellow:

Perfect serrations, cracked root, cracked enamel, broken tip. :(:angry:

Broken serrations, cracked root, craked enamel, broken tip :angry::angry::(

And finally what makes me the most unhappy:

Perfect serrations, perfect root, perfect enamel, CRACKED RIGHT IN HALF! :o:angry::angry::angry::(:wacko::angry::faint:
