THE 20 PRIMARY TEETH (ALSO CALLED MILK TEETH)Usually begin to erupt when a baby is about six months old .They started to be replaced by the permanent teeth .When the child is about six year old .By the age of 20 .most adults have a full set of 52 teeth although third molar (commonly called wisdom teeth ) may never erupt .
Teeth help people to speak clearly and give shape to the face ,their main function is the chewing of the food .Incisors and canines shear and tear the food into pieces ;premolar and molar crush and grind it further .Although tooth enamel is the hardest substance in the body,it tends to be eroded and destroyed by the acid produced in the mouth during the breakdown of the food.
