Importance of Teeth.

Teeth plays an important role in overall nutrition and general health, speech and appearance.

Regular dental care is important to maintain your teeth.

Each tooth has a different function as follows---

INCISORS -- Incisors are cutting teeth that work like scissors to bite off pieces of food.

CUSPIDS --  Cuspids/Canines are pointed teeth that work like a fork to tear food into small pieces.

BICUSPIDS -- Bicuspids/Premolars have pointed chewing surfaces and work like a nut cracker to crush food.

MOLARS -- Molars have strong, broad surfaces and work like a mortar and pestle to grind food.

Baby teeth are important for chewing and maintains space for the larger permanent teeth to come in correctly.

Teeth may get damaged in the form of caries, periodontal disease, trauma, infection, wasting disorders.

If anything happens to the teeth, it should be treated at the earlier stage so that we can save our natural teeth.

If any missing teeth are there, immediate replacement has to be done.

CONCLUSION:

Every tooth is having their specific role in our mouth. 

Take care of your teeth with regular dental checkups.
