What are teeth made of?

The crown is the part of the tooth that you can see it above the gum, which is covered by hard, shiny enamel. Enamel is a very hard substance and it’s the hardest substance in the body. It protects the most sensitive inner part of the tooth.

The dentine is underneath, and it’s a sensitive substance that makes the most of the tooth. Dentine is a hard substance, but its not as hard as the enamel.Dentine protects the inner part of the tooth, which called the pulp.

The tooth's blood supply, and nerves are all end in the pulp. The blood supply is what keeps the teeth alive and healthy. The nerve endings send messages to the brain, such as whether you're eating something hot or cold or if you have a decayed or damaged tooth.The pulp goes into the root of the tooth under the gum. Cementum covers the root of the tooth, and periodontal fibres connect the tooth to the jawbone.

What are the milk teeth?

We all lost our milk teeth in childhood. They begin to develop before they are born, but in most cases don't come through until they're between 6 and 12 months old. In the age of 3 years most kids have a set of 20 milk teeth. When they reach five or six, the milk teeth will start to fall out, making way for adult teeth.

What are the adult teeth?

By the age of 12 to 14, most children have lost all their baby teeth and have their adult teeth. And they are 12 more than in the baby or milk teeth set, which means it consist of 32 teeth in total. Because the last four adult teeth usually emerge later than the others, in later age they are called the wisdom teeth, and some time they cause a severe pain.

What are the types of teeth?

There are four different types of teeth:

Incisors. The four front teeth on the top and bottom jaw. They’re used for cutting and chopping food.

Canine teeth. These are sharp, pointy teeth. You have one on each side of your incisors on your top and bottom jaw, making a total of four. They help to tear food. They are large in meat eater animals.

Premolars. Next to your canine teeth are your premolars (also called bicuspid teeth). You have eight premolars in total, four on your top jaw and four on the bottom. They are bigger and wider than your incisors and canine teeth, and are used for crushing and grinding food.

Molars. You have eight molars, four on top and four on the bottom. These are your strongest teeth and work with your tongue to help you swallow food, mashing it up until it's ready to be swallowed safely.
