consider these two points when you are thinking about choosing a new dentist. Enamel For some people‚ the enamel that covers the interior of your teeth is softer than others. In rare cases‚ a person may experience Amelogenesis imperfecta which is an enamel development disorder. The thickness of the enamel of your teeth and how it develops is determined by your genes. If your child has a parent that has soft or thin enamel‚ there is a possibility they will too. When

layers of protective enamel that have broken down over time. The enamel breaks down due to common reasons‚ such as brushing your teeth too hard‚ and eating foods that are acidic. However‚ teeth sensitivity can be caused by these other reasons that are not so common. You Have A Cracked Tooth Teeth sensitivity can actually be a warning sign of a problem that is much larger. You will want to pay close attention to sensitivity to make sure that it is not due to a cracked tooth. While you may experience

Shannon Yeh October 28‚ 2013 Animal Dentition Laboratory Assignment (Figure 1.) Tooth Sharpness (degrees) (Figure 2.) Relative Tooth Width (mm.) Results: The dental formula is a convention used by mammalogists to determine the tooth number and tooth arrangements. The dental formula is calculated by counting the number of incisors‚ canines‚ premolars‚ and molars present in the upper jaw (one side) and counting the number of incisors‚ canines‚ premolars‚ and molars

Water Fluoridation Around 30% of children under 17 years old get cavities and about 14% of adults each year (Oral Health Center). Cavities can cause toothache‚ holes in the teeth‚ tooth abscess‚ fractured tooth‚ which causes pain and tooth sensitivity. These symptoms can become a nightmare‚ as our teeth are necessities in order to consume most of the available food products. If not taken care of early‚ amalgam “silver” fillings are needed. These fillings contain mercury‚ which is said by the American

everyday. The fluoride in the water can either occur naturally or by adding fluorine‚ by drinking a certain amount of fluoridated water each day can help to prevent tooth decay; the fluoridated water works on the surfaces of our teeth and causes the fluoride level in our saliva and hence reduces the rate of demineralisation of our tooth enamel‚ therefore increasing the rate at which it remineralised. There are some benefits of fluoridation in water but it could also potentially harm and cause disease

cariogenic snacks‚ jelly sandwiches‚ soft drinks because they’re more appealing to them. That diminished their appetite and those promote tooth decay. Those cariogenic food break down into simple sugars in the mouth and used by the bacteria that convert the sugars in acid. This acid attacks the tooth‚ causing demineralization of the hard tissue of the tooth enamel and lead to dental caries. Nutrient from foods are important to facilitate growth to maintain homeostasis and achieve optimal health‚ but

over a period of time in such a way as to encourage demineralisation of the tooth enamel which results to caries formation. This disease can affect both the enamel (the outer coating of the tooth) and the dentin (the inner layer of the tooth). This is also a disease of all ages‚ affecting not only children but also for adults since recession of the gums are prevalent in the old ages; this occurrence exposes the tooth roots to plaque causing greater damage (Tonn‚ 2009) Dental caries will not occur

effects that outweigh the positive effects. Soda‚ especially diet‚ is detrimental to the health of your body. My cousin ’s teacher did an experiment with coke. She put a tooth in coke and left it for at least a week. The next time they checked the tooth had disintegrated. The coke had eaten away at the tooth. If this can happen to a tooth imagine what it does to your body. How healthful are these drinks‚ which provide a lot of sugars‚ calories and caffeine but no significant nutritional value? And what

important to determine which ingredient in beverages causes tooth stains and even decay. Enamel is a very important part of teeth as its main purpose is to protect the tooth‚ and since it is a mineral it can not grow back. Enamel has a very complex structure that has slowed down innovation. For example‚ even though scientist knows magnesium‚ carbonate and fluoride ions influence enamel properties‚ they hadn’t been able to map their location in enamel at a high enough resolution. Scientists hope that by
