第七大牙相，有四，謂四大牙。初右邊下牙。眾寶莊嚴者，明體具德也。放大光等，明業用廣大也。普放光等，顯利益之相。此是所照佛身，復放光益。二右邊上牙用中，一一光內現佛依正，故名為藏。三左邊下牙用中，照現一切佛及眷屬，故名燈雲。四左邊上牙，於中「出生」下明業用，謂因此大牙出大妙音，現佛因果法等。《智論》牙白勝雪山王。

> The seventh: the mark of the canine teeth has four, namely the four canine teeth. First is the lower canine on the right side. 'Adorned with various jewels' clarifies that the essence possesses virtues. 'Emitting great light', etc., clarifies that the karmic function is vast. 'Universally emitting light', etc., reveals the characteristics of benefit. This is the Buddha body that is illuminated, which in turn emits light to benefit. In the function of the second, the upper canine on the right side, within each and every light Buddhas' environments and beings manifest; hence it is named 'treasury'. In the function of the third, the lower canine on the left side, it illuminates and manifests all Buddhas and their retinues; hence it is named 'lamp cloud'. The fourth is the upper canine on the left side; therein, from 'giving birth to' down clarifies the karmic function, meaning that relying on this great canine, great exquisite sound emerges, manifesting the Buddha's causal and resultant Dharmas, etc. The Dà zhìdù lùn states that the teeth are whiter than the king of snow mountains.
