Has Teeth But Can’t Bite
What has teeth but can’t bite?
A comb. Other inanimate objects with teeth like a saw, zipper or a gear can “bite” you. Many people can affirm from painful experience in regards to zippers and saws, and the unfortunate factory worker who is missing a finger can attest to gears. It’s a rare event that anyone would be injured by a comb.
Another grim option is a dead animal or person.

Your breath.
A Voice With No Mouth

An echo.
