Who knows?  
 
I DO think only one parent (or side of the pedigree!!!!!) can produce  it.  
If you look at literally ALL of our popular pedigrees you can  find popular 
sires, popular ROM dams, sibling of popular sires/dams w/ a  missing tooth 
or teeth.  Sometimes you hear about it, sometimes you  don't. And sometimes 
you hear about it only after the fact when you run  into trouble. (A person 
might say to you "heck yeah, THAT'S where your issue  came from!) Some 
popular dogs I have seen finished can whistle <G>,  and they have siblings 
never 
shown who can whistle and NO, I wouldn't/haven't  knowingly used them even 
though some of the progeny will obviously have full  mouths.
 
And to complicate things, sometimes these thing skip a generation or  two.  
And to further complicate things sometimes other mouth issues (wry  mouth, 
"off" bites) are in the same lines.
 
I just try to do my homework and not double up.

I am  still trying to learn more about heredity, SO can anyone tell me   
what determines tooth absence in GSDs?  Do both parents have to  be  
carriers to produce it (or can ONE parent produce it?)  Does  a dog/ 
bitch automatically produce it if he/she HAS missing teeth?  I  know  
that dogs have finished who have had missing teeth ( or a  missing  
tooth) and how do you feel about breeding those  animals?
