TEETH ARE A LOT more complicated than they might seem from the outside, which is why we’re going to have a quick dental anatomy lesson, from crown to root. The crown is the part above the gumline. The outermost layer is the enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. Beneath the enamel is dentin, which is a lot like bone. It contains microscopic tubules that run from the pulp chamber to the outer enamel. That’s why we can feel temperature in our teeth. A big difference... between baby teeth and adult teeth is that baby teeth have much thicker enamel, which is why they appear whiter! At the core of each tooth is the dental pulp chamber. The pulp includes the blood vessels that keep the tooth alive and nerves that provide sensation including pain receptors that let us know when something is wrong. The root is the long part of the tooth that connects to the jaw bone. Tiny periodontal ligaments hold each tooth in place, and gum tissue provides extra support. The roots are hollow, with canals that link the nerves and blood vessels in the dental pulp to the nervous and cardiovascular systems. Roots are protected by a thin layer of cementum and the surrounding healthy gum tissue. #toothanatomy #education #pediatricdentist

EXPERTS CAN TELL a dolphin’s age by looking at a small section of the root of one of their teeth under a microscope and counting the layers of growth. Scientists believe that dolphins add one growth layer to their teeth per year. #funfact #didyouknow #animalfacts

DECADES OF PSAs and instruction have been pretty effective at stripping traditional cigarettes of their cool facade, but modern kids and teens aren’t as wary of vaping. Vaping is often portrayed as a much healthier option to traditional smoking, but the vapor still contains nicotine and ultra-fine toxic chemicals and heavy metals. Nicotine reduces blood flow, affecting teeth and gums, potentially causing gum recession and death of gum tissue. It can also reduce saliva pro...duction, leading to dry mouth (which causes all kinds of problems, from bad breath to tooth decay), and it can trigger teeth grinding, which damages teeth. Kids who don’t smoke cigarettes may still be vulnerable to vaping because of all the messaging that it’s not as unhealthy as traditional smoking not to mention the brightly colored vape pens and candy flavors the liquid comes in. As parents, we should talk to our kids about the effects of vaping and help them understand that they don’t need a harmful and addictive habit to be cool and grown up. #vaping #smoking #pediatricdentist #oralhealth
