Crown
— It is the upper part of the tooth and the only place that can be clearly seen with the eye. The shape of the crown determines the tooth's function. For example, the front teeth have sharp surfaces to cut the food, while the minor teeth have flat surfaces to grind nutrients.
Gum Line
— It is the joint of the tooth and gingiva. If proper brushing and dental cleaning are not done, plaque and tartar may form on the gum line, causing gum inflammation and gum disease.
Root
— It is the part of the tooth buried in the bone. The root forms about two-thirds of the tooth and holds the tooth in place.
Enamel
— It is the outermost layer of the tooth. Mine is also the hardest and most mineralized texture in the body at the same time. Failure to provide proper mouth cleaning may result in decay.
Dentine
— It's the tooth layer underneath the miniature. If the bruise can move inward, the next place to reach is the denture. In this section there are millions of channels that go to the pulp.
Pulp
—The soft tissue in the center of the tooth, where nerve tissue and blood vessels are present. When you reach the rotten pulp you usually feel pain.
Incisors
— The sharp front teeth used to cut food (four on top and four on bottom).
Canins
— These teeth, have sharp tips and they are useful for splicing.
Premolars
— These teeth have two protuberances on their chewing surfaces. Small teeth can crumble and break.
Molars
— They are used to grind food. There are multiple hives on the chewing surface.
