Homework Help: Health: Choice Making: Structure of Teeth


by Leo Galleguillos

Your teeth help cut and grind food for you to swallow. There are four different types of teeth:

incisors - sharp front teeth that cut food
canines - also called eyeteeth, are point teeth that tear food
premolars - flat teeth that tear and crush food
molars - large teeth that grind food into bits

Each tooth has two main parts:

crown - part above gums
root - part below gums that goes into jawbone
