Mouth

 Every time we smile, frown, talk, or eat, we use our mouths and teeth. Our mouths
and teeth let us make different facial expressions, form words, eat, drink, and begin
the process of digestion
 There are over 600 different kinds of bacteria in your mouth. 
 The mouth is essential for speech. With the lips and tongue, teeth help form words by
controlling airflow out of the mouth. The tongue strikes the teeth or the roof of the
mouth as some sounds are made.
 When we eat, our teeth tear, cut, and grind food in preparation for swallowing. The
tongue helps push food to the teeth, and allows us to taste the food we eat.
  Has anyone ever told you that the tongue is a muscle? Well, that's only partly true:
The tongue is really made up of many groups of muscles.

Teeth

 The first teeth we get as babies are called milk teeth. Babies start developing teeth
before they’re even born, but the teeth aren’t visible until the baby is 6-12 months old.
 Small children get 20 milk teeth. 
 When children are around 5 or 6 years old, their teeth start to fall out one by one. 
 Had the tooth fairy visited your home ? The milk teeth are pushed out by permanent
teeth growing in.
 By the age of 12 or 13, most kids have lost all of their milk teeth and have a full set of
permanent teeth.
 You have more permanent teeth than milk teeth: 32 in all.
 The four wisdom teeth are the last to come in, when u r big between age 17 and 25. Some
people never grow wisdom teeth  and have only 28 teeth.
 Your teeth are like icebergs in that about one-third of each tooth lies below the gum
line. That’s one of the reasons why maintaining healthy gums is so important.
 The crown is the part of your tooth you can see.
 Each crown is covered in a substance called enamel, which is very hard and tough.
It’s actually the hardest material in the body! Its job is to protect the inner parts of the
tooth, which are very sensitive.
 Below the enamel is dentin and then pulp. 
 Unlike bones or other parts of the body, teeth are incapable of self-repair. That is why
fillings and other dental work is necessary to protect teeth from further damage.
 Your teeth are unique. Like your fingerprints, your teeth are yours and only yours.
Even if you have an identical twin, your teeth are not alike. So, take care of your
teeth and your teeth will take care of you.
