teeth
Humans eat both meat and a
variety of plant matter. As a result,
we have several types of teeth
Cementum-The cementum is the part of the periodontium that attaches the teeth to the alveolar bone
by anchoring the periodontal ligament.
The pulp is the part in the center of a tooth made up of living connective tissue
and cells called odontoblasts.
The neck,-it is the place where the cementum of the root meets the enamel of
the
tooth’s crown
The crown- consists of a thick enamel surface that is used to cut and grind food.
A
thick layer of dentin lies under the enamel, between it and the pulp of the
tooth.
