In heraldry, a line which is drawn dancetty is made up of several zigzags. It differs from indented in that the zigzags are longer. It is usual for a line dancetty to have only three complete teeth, even if it extends the entire length of the shield. An two-edged ordinary dancetty is usually emblazoned so that the teeth fit into each other, giving the impression that the entire ordinary is a large zigzag.
