Understanding the different types of teeth
Every tooth has its own structure and function. Understanding the types of teeth is important if you want healthy teeth.
Key takeaways:
– There are two sets of teeth, baby and adult, and they all grow symmetrically, meaning the top molar on the right grows at the same time as the one on the left.
– A tooth is made up of enamel, dentin. cementum and pulp.
– Types of teeth are canines for tearing, premolars and molars for grinding, and incisors for biting.
See the dentist regularly for dental care and checkups.
