Are these cow shark teeth symphyseal?

Hi everyone!

 

I acquired these in a batch of cow shark teeth from Antwerp, Belgium. I think they're symphyseal, but they're all incomplete so I'm not 100% sure.

 

What do you all think? Any insight is greatly appreciated as always!

The third one is questionable, with all the cones pointing in the same direction it's hard to tell. I think the other 3 are partial symphyseals.

I think the third one could also be partial symphyseal, here's one i found last year in Antwerp. Hard to tell with the presumed other side missing tho...
