Detailed Question Description:
In mammalian oral anatomy, the canine teeth, also called cuspids, dogteeth, fangs, or (in the case of those of the upper jaw) eye teeth, are relatively long, pointed teeth. However, they can appear more flattened, causing them to resemble incisors and leading them to be called incisiform.

Details:
Are distinct canines are a more 'wild' feature as loss of them indicates longer history of civilization, then likewise with necessary wisdom teeth extraction being an indication of a longer history of civilization. Or Are distinct canines a sign of being tailored to eat more meat while wisdom teeth extraction necessity being a sign of being tailored to eat more plants, tubers, and grains which ground down molars and necessitate their replacement with the maturing of the wisdom molars.
