I was told this replica skull is a Bengal tiger, the head length is 355mm, canine length is 58mm.
Is this in the range of Bengal tiger?
I feel that the posterior contour of canine seem oddly, it has a dented, both canines are. Is it normal?

Very odd indeed, maybe something off during the casting process?

I am also thought, but some people said it maybe is a old individual and abrasion on its teeth. Thank you for your reply.

Tiger canine often displays this type of tendency, whereas this one could be an old male bearing with a lot of abrasion on its teeth.

That's why the dent now looks more glaringly obvious.

Thank you for your reply. This is possible- abrasion on teeth . Reply
