I denti da latte sono affilati.

English

Baby teeth are sharp.

affilati makes me think that they have been sharpened on purpose. How about acuti?

I’m not so sure. I read this as the teeth simply being sharp. I think of *acuti as sharp but perhaps more about a sound.

It seems fair to almost consider denti affilati as a colocation.
